One of the most watched, disturbing and talked about realities of 2023 was the spiraling cost of food. We heard about consumer experiences and concerns regularly. This with 6.8 million Canadians, including 1.8 million children in Canada (U of T) experiencing food insecurity and food banks nationally stretched beyond their capacity to make up for the food shortfall. - There were questions about grocers engaging in profiteering at the expense of consumers and grocery chain CEO's were summoned to appear before parliament more than once. Food inflation outpaced general inflation for months on end. How do we assess 2023 and what should we expect for 2024?
Guest: Professor Sylvain Charlebois. Director of the Agri Foods Lab at Dalhousie University and Project Lead for the 24th edition of Canada's Food Price Report 2024.
