      That food price inflation is what really hurting avg folks.

      When I go grocery shopping I sometimes have to check the price tag is accurate cause I cant believe how much some prices keep increasing.

      Green peppers went from being like 2.50 2.99 to like 5.99 ( I think they went bsck down a bit)

      I have to wait till August till my backyard garden will finish growing them

      Im looking forward to pierre poilievre correctly identifying trump and America as the cause of the increase cost of gas right before he blames justin trudeau for it.

      Looks like the BoC might actually have to hike rates in 2026, just like the US Fed is now expected to. I still to this day maintain that Macklem started cutting too soon, before the job was truly done.

      I am pretty sure this inflation is different and to fight this off we gotta cut the rates. Also, struggling real estate invoosters can greatly benefit from lower rates — irate cuts is a win win for Canada

      I am no economist. But in my simpleton’s view of the situation, it is not access to capital that is driving inflation. Anecdotal I know, but everyone I know is strapped for cash right now. Locally, lots of homes on the market, but they’re not selling or they’re going for below asking. This does not feel like something that can be fixed with rate hikes. In fact, I think they’ll crush a lot of people.

      Food purchased from stores rose 4.3% year over year in May 2026, the 16th consecutive month it has outpaced headline inflation, according to Statistics Canada. Fresh vegetables surged 9.0% annually, the largest monthly May increase since 2008, driven by higher prices for broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, and lettuce. Tomato prices alone climbed 45.2% year over year in May

      Yet the BOC keeps its ultra-low interest rates.

      When Inflation is High: Central banks raise interest rates. This makes borrowing money for mortgages, car loans, and business expansions more expensive. Because it costs more to borrow, consumers and businesses spend less, demand cools down, and price growth slows.

      Can’t help but notice everyone is pointing in every direction other than billionaires colluding. They’ve admitted to coming together to raise food as high as possible…
