He tried to get into Montreal's kosher market. It led to a battle over alleged meat monopoly

Mendy Boyarsky has accused the Jewish Community Council of Montreal of leveraging its market control to stifle competition in the city's kosher meat sector via its certifier, Montreal Kosher (MK Kosher). Boyarsky has called for the federal Competition Tribunal to investigate, claiming that the council's dominance is unfairly restricting new market entrants. The JCC vehemently denies these allegations, maintaining that it operates within legal and ethical guidelines. This dispute highlights broader concerns about market monopolies and the impact on consumer choice and fair competition.
