Rising costs | Feb 5, 2026

Canadians across the country are feeling the strain of rising food costs, and affordability at the grocery store is a concern we all share. Food prices continue to rise, putting pressure on household budgets and increasing reliance on food banks. Many families are simply looking for practical, long-term solutions that lower costs, strengthen competition in the food sector, and help ensure everyone can afford nutritious food. This is about finding real, workable answers that reduce costs, support jobs, and make life more affordable for Canadian families—something we can all agree is worth striving for.
