As inflation continues to rise, more than four in ten people living in Canada reported difficulty in being able to afford food for their households. This proportion was highest in the Atlantic Provinces, where household incomes are among the lowest in the country, and where 56 percent of respondents said they were experiencing this difficulty. In contrast, in Quebec, only about one-third of the population experienced this issue.
