 AA> I seem to recall that it mentioned max payout of $25.

JH> From the CBC article about it:
JH> "Customers who bought bread between January 2001 and December 2021 and did
not
JH> previously take a gift card from Loblaw will eventually receive up to $25.
If there is still money left over after that distribution, funds will be
divided among anyone who claimed the gift card."

JH> If you didn't get a Loblaw gift card before, you'll now get up to $25.

It still sounds confusing.  Why do they say "up to $25" and then suggest that
the funds would be greater "if there is money left over"?

If there is potential to receive more, they should have said "minimum $25",
simple.

JH> If you already got the gift card, you won't get that $25 again, but you
might still get a share of any leftover funds after the $25 payments are made.

Well.. I did not partake in the gift card as compensation following the
scandal.
