do we not already have one?

Yes. That's why I posted this. It's so blatantly evident in Canada. And it doesn't stop at the food industry. We could add telecom in there as well. And what else?

Our oil and gas is controlled by a cartel (OPEC)! I think there was an example for our milk or bread in particular as well.
