Why are some stores like whole foods allowed to stay open on labor day while others can't (lemmy.world)

I had a couple of sick kids all week so I didn't get a chance to grab some essential groceries all week, now that I have a chance I look online and it seems only the whole foods and rabba are the ones that are open today. Those are the two I usually avoid because of their ridiculous prices, so I was wondering why the cheaper places don't open, and if it has anything to do with Ontario law.

There is no rules against being open. You have to pay holiday pay, time and half though.

Reminds me of a article that I read where retails are currently lobbying to stay open year round in Ontario to compete with businesses like amazon.

Not sure if retails were pushing to remove holiday pay or time and a half.

Can't seem to find the article at the moment.
