2025: The management of Loblaws is massively fined and the company is broken up into multiple grocers with 55% of the stores falling under a crown corporation with the other 45% becoming local cooperatives effectively bringing down the cost of groceries greatly for everyone.

2026: In this future timeline vegans are very effective in their messaging with CBC finally caving into pressure by becoming a vegan news organization.

2027: The $2 billion in animal agriculture subsidies have been dropped in 2027.

2028: The population becomes more centre and left wing in their views.

2031: Two extensive electric train networks owned by the public have been built in collaboration with first nations peoples to reach the Arctic Ocean where the ships are loaded to provide better logistics to the communities of Nunavut. The train tracks all over the two western territories with connections to the southern lines from British Columbia and Alberta.

2032: Nunavut has much better access to produce thanks to the railway and increased funding to the smaller airlines with the crown corporation of Air Canada keeping the shipping rates lower and the people are currently in the process of veganizing all their meat-heavy traditional dishes.

2033: StatCan data shows British Columbia becoming the first vegan majority area in North America with 50.01% of the population identifying as vegan.

The term 'penetration' sounds a bit militaristic, imho

Percentage would've been a better term.

If we're assuming the total population of Canada to be at 41.737 million with the vegan population to be at 6.7% during the year 2024 with annual increases of 1.05% = 438,200 of people becoming vegan then the target of 31% would instead be met at 2050.

So its necessary to increase the rate by 47.7% to met the 2031 target.
