Household food inflation in Canada / by Olena Kostyshyna and Maude Ouellet.: FB3-5/2024-33E-PDF

Low-income households faced higher inflation than high-income households. We find that during the high-inflation period, households used several strategies to lower the impact of inflation, including shopping more frequently, shopping at more stores or buying more on sale. Canadian households also substituted more toward low-priced products when inflation increased"--Abstract, page ii.
