SO BEYS PULLS SUPPORT OVER CONVICTED FEATURED SPEAKER

-

A national grocery chain said it’s no longer a sponsor of a series of “wellness” exposition­s where a man convicted in the death of his toddler was listed as a speaker. A spokeswoma­n said Sobeys couldn’t support the decision to host David Stephan as a speaker at the Health and Wellness Expos of Canada. He and his wife were found guilty of failing to provide the necessarie­s of life in their son’s death from bacterial meningitis. By Sunday afternoon, Stephan’s name was removed from the expo’s website.
