This is the unsourced statement I removed. It's in the history subsection of PC Plus. I tried to find a source to cite this information, but there were two problems I encountered when trying to find one. I think that this information is relevant to include here.
The date. Febuary 9, 2017 is a specific date, but no sources indicate that Loblaw made an annoucement on it. There are news sources published on Febuary 9, 2017 about Loblaws sending out an e-mail "late last month" requesting users to change their passwords (with suggestions about those changes) but nothing about Loblaw itself annoucing anything on that date.
There were quotations from the Loblaw vice-president in these news reports about individual accounts being compromised and the aforementioned password suggestions.
