I back onto the bypass between Albert & Lewvan - there are a lot more Loblaws semis going by than any other branded semi. Not scientific - there are a hundred reasons why Loblaws would have more semis on this section of highway than WalMart, Safeway, McDonalds, etc... not to mention the use of leased (aka lacking corporate branding) rigs. But, I was in the house before Loblaws' warehouse opened, and I'm quite certain their traffic volume has increased massively.

I realize this also doesn't answer your fundamental question about full potential/capacity... I don't know what the volume would look like if it was undercapacity vs. at capacity. I do know that I see A LOT of Loblaws semis)

New poll came out today that has the NDP in the lead (49% to 40%). But polls haven't exactly been accurate in the past 5+ years. If they were, the Wildrose would be leading Alberta; Justin
might have a minority (at best); Britain wouldn't be leaving the EU; and the Americans' Cheezie with hair would still be golfing, but wouldn't have access to the launch codes.
