Economy 52,864 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 www.ctvnews.ca/mobile/business/canada-s-inflation-rate-rises-to-1-3-in-july-driven-by-higher-food-prices-1.2527229 Like last year, Inflation in Canada continues to be led by food prices more than anything else. The reason? The rise and rally of the US Dollar! The main thing Canada buys from America is food. Canada is more dependant on food from the US than any other Nation. Canada especially depends on the US a lot for fruits, vegetables and many premade packaged food which is costing a lot more to import now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 680 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 The California drought is also a factor. I saw avocados 2 for $4 yesterday. I've read predictions that they will be soon be priced as luxury goods due to environmental factors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
