NUNAVUT MP ON ‘INHUMANE’ LABRADOR FOOD PRICES: COMPLAIN DIRECTLY TO NORTHERN
AFFAIRS

 * admin

A Nunavut MP is urging people in northern Labrador to complain directly to the
federal government about food prices that have been described as inhumane.

NDP member Lori Idlout says a federal subsidy program to reduce food prices in
remote Indigenous communities is not meeting its goal, and she says people
should complain about it to Northern Affairs Minister Dan Vandal.

Nain, N.L., recorded a 62 per cent increase in the cost of healthy food between
2011, when the Nutrition North subsidy program was introduced, and 2021 — the
highest increase reported among communities that qualify for the subsidies.

Pictures on social media show the local Northern Store charging $7.97 for
cabbage and $21.49 for a 1.42-litre bottle of Crisco cooking oil — prices Nain
resident Rosie Harris has described as “inhumane.”

Lynn Blackwood, food security programs manager with the Inuit Nunatsiavut
Government in northern Labrador, says the program is “obviously” not working,
particularly for Nain.

She says though the federal government is reviewing the program, a subsidy
adjustment is needed now to bring down food prices.

A statement from the Department of Northern Affairs says the rise in food costs
across the country and a 30 per cent increase in fuel and transportation costs
helped drive food prices higher in northern Labrador.

The statement says officials reviewing the Nutrition North program are set to
visit Nain and Rigolet, N.L., early next year to speak with elders and community
members about the cost of food.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Oct. 10, 2024.
