Canada’s inflation rate rises in July, but food prices remain stable

The rise in inflation can be attributed to various factors such as supply chain disruptions, higher demand for goods and services, and other economic factors. The easing of food prices in July is a positive sign for consumers as it means that they will have to spend less on food items than they did in June.
