Get ready to spend more at the grocery store — again. Dr. Sylvain Charlebois returns with the 2026 Food Price Report, forecasting a 4–6% increase driven largely by meat and pantry staples.

With 25+ experts and 9 universities behind the predictions, Charlebois breaks down the data, the modeling, and the surprising economic forces at play. Discover why restaurant bills are set to climb, what “others” in the grocery aisle really means, and how Canadian families can navigate rising costs — without sacrificing health or quality.

Learn why meat prices aren’t coming down anytime soon, how chicken is filling the protein gap, and why independent grocers may be the unexpected heroes of 2026.
