I was there when this was shot ! My mom was a cashier at the Bayview & Moore location and told me that a commercial was going to be filmed. I took the bus there and spent the evening watching them shoot this scene over and over again. I had no idea who he was but I did get his autograph (which I still have... somewhere) I'm guessing this was around 1974 or so.
I was a Loblaws store designer back at that time. Worked at Bathurst and Lakeshore at the north building, also the woodworking shop on the upper floor. Made lots of good friends in those days working there!
I didn't know he did Loblaws commercials, I remember distinctly him doing SuperValu commencials back in the day (which has always been owned by Loblaws). My guess is that they were the exact same commercials, just reshot with a changed script.
I see a Captain Kirk Vs Loblaws Evil President Galen Weston Star Trek Movie . The Search For Lower Prices The Wrath of Cucumbers. The Final Head of lettuce,

I was there too - don't remember seeing you ;)
Went to that Loblaws lots; drove by it lots too.
Nice to know which store this was filmed at and very cool that the location still exists!

My friend Bill was there that day
He waved at William Shatner through the window from the parking lot and William looked away
