Thanksgiving is this weekend. If you haven’t noticed food prices coming down or even stabilizing, you aren’t alone.
Sure, the Justin Trudeau government summoned the major grocery chains and demanded plans to deal with rising prices by this holiday weekend, but that doesn’t mean you will notice a difference.Days after that demand and that meeting with the grocers, Statistics Canada released its latest inflation report showing food prices still marching upward. Putting chicken in your grocery cart would have cost you an extra 8.
“Will, by this Monday, Thanksgiving, he reverse the 22% inflation in the price of peas, the 33% inflation in the price of green salads, the 37% price inflation in the cost of frozen turkeys and the 74% price inflation for potatoes. Will he keep his word, will he bring the prices down, yes or no?” Poilievre said.Trudeau’s reply was to say that the Conservatives are blocking his Bill C-56, the Affordable Housing and Groceries Act.
Speaking of Charlebois, he and his colleagues at the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University found that three in five Canadians worry about the health impact of compromising nutrition as they adjust their grocery shopping habits to deal with higher prices. The survey of more than 5,000 Canadians found that more are using discount stores and that more Canadians are saying they prioritize cost over nutritional value compared to a year ago.
