    1. Inflation at 1.9% is not too bad, it’s actually better than in the US. If inflation rose by 1.9% that would be bad.

      Given that this is largely driven by automobile price increases, it starts to highlight the cost of maintaining high tariffs against substantially cheaper cars from *gasp* China.

    3. Can anyone with the CPC explain how this can possibly be the case when the carbon tax has been axed? Could the dreaded carbon tax of JT possibly not be the driver of all inflation. Could PP possibly have been exaggerating? Could he have stretched the truth to gain political points? Could he possibly have tricked people into believing that JT and the Libs were responsible for global inflation? Was he ever the right guy for the job, and how many other issues has he been less than honest about?

      As we all know, the Central Bank is more concerned with core inflation than with the broader average. Car increases due to tariffs have little or nothing to do with monetary policy. Groceries inflation coming lower is good news. Wish the article had more details about core inflation.

      Edit to add: just checked and sadly core inflation is unchanged in one measure, slightly up in another.

    5. Something to keep in mind is that all inflation numbers from April 2025 to March 2026 will be lower by a bit because of the removable of the carbon pricing on gas. That will only last a year, since then it’ll be baked in. So, without that factor that 1.9% would be higher.
