Excluding gasoline, headline inflation would have been 4.0% in June, following a 4.4% increase in May.

Canadians continued to see elevated grocery prices (+9.1%) and mortgage interest costs (+30.1%) in June, with those indexes contributing the most to the headline CPI increase.

The all-items excluding food index rose 1.7% and the all-items excluding mortgage interest cost index rose 2.0%.

at the individual farm level, you can definitely purchase meat.

Yes, unless it is poultry, in which case it is much like dairy (with an exemption for hobby-scale farms). Although the abbatoire problem remains, and good luck finding an abbatoire these days.

I buy turkey directly from an organic farm like 10 minutes away from my house...

No doubt, but are they breaking the law, or is the flock small enough to be within the exemption?

[-] Steeve@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

I don't know, you didn't link any laws or anything in your initial comment

Well, how many birds do they keep?

[-] dexx4d@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Small farmer here - we keep exactly one less production bird than the maximum legal requirement, as most farmers of our scale do.
