It's worth noting that this is a consumer perception survey. The study asked people if they thought prices had gone up. They didn't collect food prices six months ago and then compare them to the price of the same items today, which - presumably - is what Statistics Canada did.

Good point. I feel like, for me, food prices have gone down substantially. I love a good argument, but this is like arguing with a fucking child. Do some VERY basic research on CPI before talking any more.
