Now would be an opportunity for Trudeau to show some leadership on the inflation crisis by suspending the carbon tax and his new fuel standards cash grab.



Grocery bill for Canadian families to go up by almost $1,000 in 2022: Report





Canada's Food Price Report predicts the average family of four will pay an extra $966 for food in 2022, for a total annual grocery bill of nearly 15-thousand dollars.



A new report says food prices in Canada are expected to rise to record highs next year.



That's a 7% rise compared to this year, the biggest jump ever predicted by the report.



Sylvain Charlebois, lead author and Dalhousie University professor, says the era of cheap food has ended.



He says prices have been rising steadily since 2010 but the pandemic accelerated that trend.



The report says key drivers pushing up food prices next year include supply chain disruptions, labour market issues and adverse weather events.



It says soaring food prices will contribute to rising food insecurity in Canada, which could leave food banks struggling with higher costs just as demand for their services increases.



The report says the biggest price hikes will be in the dairy aisle and on restaurant menus, which are both expected to see price increases of 6% to 8%.

We're noticing it now, but it will get worse. How can Trudeau live with himself raising taxes on everything when so many working people are struggling to put food on the table.
