Canadians are spending less of their money on food compared to a year ago despite food inflation remaining high, according to a new report by Dalhousie University.
“Canadians are either wasting less or finding alternative ways to source food outside conventional channels like grocery stores, such as dollar stores and non-traditional grocery discounters,” said Sylvain Charlebois, senior director of the Agri-food Analytics Lab and a professor in food distribution and policy at Dalhousie University.
