Up untill a week ago Nofrills carried these “three packs” of salmon for $10. Now the same pack contains two for the same $10. I thought it felt light when I bought it yesterday.

This comes to about $0.02 increase per gram, and a $1.10 price increase overall. Or a 11% increase in price overall. Meanwhile inflation is at 6-7%?

    I mean the government is doing it, that’s what disability is. It’s just not kept up with inflation in a lot of areas.

      What I meant is that the government should provide it and ensure you can actually live off of it.

        Oh then I would not agree the US is an outlier in that, or at least not near the only exception.
