Statistics Canada reported that annual inflation was 3.1 per cent in September, an increase from 3.0 per cent in August. A regional report for Northwestern Ontario noted that food prices have risen roughly 33 per cent since September 2020, and high heating costs overlap with peak discretionary spending periods.

The rising cost of necessities, particularly food, and high regional heating costs in Northwestern Ontario could strain household budgets. These inflation figures are a core input that the Bank of Canada uses to inform its monetary policy decisions.
