Canadian Grocery Prices in 2024 (CRAZY EXPENSIVE) 🇨🇦 

We left Canada three years and a half years ago. Taxes are obscene, housing is insane, living costs are absolutely crazy. Canada is charging five star prices for a three star hotel. Not worth it anymore. I hope Canada can regain it's former glory....it's going to take a decade to even see some improvements.

Before Trudeau, i could feed my family of 4, for 2 weeks, for 170 dollars. Today, 300 lasts 4 days. Only dinners.

Some of these prices are similar to Australia where prices went up a lot around 2021-2022. Some eg. butter, eggs seem a bit more in Canada. Both Australia and Canada seem to be following a similar economic model based around bringing in millions of immigrants when there is not enough housing to benefit corporate oligopoly.

5$ for a bag of chips. Witch contains like no more then 3 hand sized potatos. 😳

I live in Australia, groceries are similar prices to what you paid. We are struggling here in Australia too.

As a Canadian, I can confirm most of this. It's not a complete monopoly. You can shop at Costco, Walmart and other discounted places. Eggs you can get on sale 18 for $4.99. It's Sep 16th and 27 degrees out, so it was just a cool snap for a couple days there when he was taping. It's been milder lately over the years. But yes in the past 2 years food prices have escalated but you can find deals if you look. Some places even do price matching. He also wasn't shopping with a flyer, so he missed out on deals. You can't buy food at regular price, it's a rip-off.

Canada under Justin Turd- odo has definitely gone down. 😢😢😢

When you have drama teacher Prime Minister, the drama is guaranteed 😆

Check out those Chinese grocery stores, they have much better vegetable sections and affordable prices. Most vegetables are coming from farms in America and Canada directly.

How is 1 egg = USD 1??? That's insane, it should definitely be illegal. 😰

44 bucks for a steak kg. Jesus F Christ. I live in eastern Europe, i can get something similar, on sale, for about 1/10 of it.

Strange but I somehow get the impression that junk or unhealthy stuff (sodas, chips etc) are more 'affordable' than fresh produce in this supermarket.

Grocery prices in Canada are ridiculous, but rents are insane!

How Canadians cope: "Yes, things are expensive in Canada compared to places like China, but it's the price we pay for freedom and democracy..." LMAO

Australia and Canada are on par legit. Ppl starving in both places 😢

Australia is the kind of like the same basically 2 companies COLES and Woolworths basically own 80%+ of the market share when it comes to supermarkets, and they are fully owned 100% Coporate owned by the company no franchisees like other companies e.g. 7eleven. So basically, the prices that are told ad 10% and that is the price in Australian dollars.

i dont know why but i feel like grocery stores in europe and asia look so much better than in usa and canada. its like north america is stuck in the 1950s

Watching this after the video in the Moscow supermarket is quite hilarious. Good luck to the poor souls migrating to Canada. If WW3 starts I most likely will migrate to Russia :D

I can confirm those prices are accurate and a true representation of what things cost. Yes, you can choose cheaper quality and brands for some of the items at a cheaper supermarket but, the bread, milk and butter prices are pretty much the same(or very close )across all supermarkets ( unless you get them on sale). The price of everything have gone up so much that I am at a point where I have to replace or eliminate them from my grocery shopping list( example: the cherry tomatoes for my salads)

I live in Russia. It's not a supermarket it's a nightmare with all these prices 😱

You have to be careful what grocery store your even going to.

In Russia the price is 2.5 times lower.

i live in australia, it's crazy how expensive meat is compared to australia, feels like it's twice as much, but everything else seems pretty similar

I live by buffalo and absolutely love your stores and the prices are awesome to me plus I love fudgeeo’s and smarties canaiden style

As a Canadian I skip breakfast and lunch to save money.

Всегда можно приехать к нам в гости, ждем! Из России с дружескими чувствами)

Bro, the only difference between white eggs and brown eggs are the colour of the chicken that laid it - no difference. What they eat and how they live are the differences you want to consider.

We need our taxes lowered because nothing is ever going back to pre-covid prices

No matter how much you expect your groceries to cost, it's always a lot more once you get to the register. Basically, 100$ gets you want 50 or 60 did as little as five years ago. It's insane!

I think that at this point even if they get a few competitors into the country that the prices will remain high because competitors will look at the existing prices and sell at those prices as well. BTW, I buy my meat and produce at Chinese grocery stores and buy the rest like toilet paper, dish washing detergent, etc. at the other stores. I actually prefer the fruits and vegetables in Chinese grocery stores.

the eggs were in the wrong spot. the 30 pack is $17.49. the pack of PC organic 12 is $9.49. I work at Valu-Mart.

I'm in calgary and I eat a carnivore diet I get my meats and fresh eggs from one of the local herderite colonies ( springvale fine foods ) I pick it up at the crossroads market but i guess you could drive to Red Deer to pick up as well, I also get 10 pounds of fat a couple times a year and render my own tallow as the ground beef I lean and the tallow helps, and for the last 2 years the ground was only 5.28 but they recently raised it 6.28 pound and with 1.5 pounds and 4 eggs i meet my daily recommended protean intake of 1 gram per ideal body weight and I was able to eat for under $10.00 day or $300.00 month but had gone up $45 month now. they make amazing Beef Bacon as well

The situation is similar here. When you adjust the prices it’s not that much different at a regular grocery store in the US for many items. Krogers is the largest owner of grocery stores in the US although they aren’t all called Krogers. We shop mostly at Aldi which is definitely cheaper than Krogers but about the same as Walmart and Target which are also major sellers of groceries. By the way the color of eggs has nothing to do with nutritional value. What may matter is how the chickens are raised. Food quality, space etc.

Man 1💵 for an egg？😮😮i can spend 1 Chinese yuan for an organic egg here in china…

I do same thing when shopping, i don't take what's on front 😂

Some of your food is cheaper in GTA than it is here in Quebec. Your bag milk is about two dollars cheaper than where I live, and I live where they make the milk. 😂 I've also noticed that certain kinds of food fluctuates between regions. Don't forget to add the 15% tax you paid on that bag of chips, and the gas you put in your car to get to the grocery store. We're not counting the extra few cents they charge for carbon tax per litre. Oh, and the 15% tax you paid when you bought your car. And think about it, most meat sold in Canada is locally grown. The prices are ridiculous. You do a very good price comparison btw. Your channel should have more views.

Watching from Australia. Prices look more expensive than here. Prices we pay here include GST. That makes Canadian groceries even more expensive compared to Australia.

We left Canada 2 years ago and bought a house in the Czech Republic. The inflation here is out of control too, we are a poor country. 30 eggs 7 ca$, 1 kg pork 12 ca$, 1 kg chicken breast 14.50 ca$, beef and shrimp outrageous. Other things are cheaper but we pay more for car gas 1 l 2.35 ca$. Electricity for a house 250 ca$ month with solar panels, gas 540 ca$ month while still freezing 😮

At the Canadian Superstore, 1 little bottle of PC Extra Virgin Olive Oil was $6.99 now it is $11.99; they say because of a draught in Spain, but aren't Olives grown elsewhere? Like in your video people can barely afford to buy nutritious food, quite true indeed. Maybe in a few years it will be like that Soylent Green film. Ohya, that Almond Milk was $6; usually it is $4. But I main reason I buy this Almond Milk is because it has no sugar. I wish they could make regular milk have less sugar for people who have diabetes; that is the main reason I buy this Almond milk. I am a type 2 diabetic. Another thing this Almond Milk is good, but not great for the environment since these Almond groves require lots of water; even Cows drink less.

in canada we have extra tax on alcohol that they increase periodically pretty much a tax on the poor.

I think Monopoly is the problem in Canada

24 Organic brown eggs 12$ , 2 liters of Olive organic oil 26$, Kefir 2 liters 6$ . Costco exists, I don't think it's half the price , it's around 40% overall to Loblaws/Fortinos . Leave Canadian government created monopolies behind.

You are lucky it is 109 cad thanks to china belt and road initiatives it could have been double that price without china. Keep an eye out on china BRI progress because that will be the reason for costs to go down even further.

These prices are cheaper than in the US.

So, everything in Australian dollars is about the same as Sydney, Australia besides the fruit and veg keep in mind the fruit and veg in Sydney supermarkets are like watching prices on the stock exchange UP and DOWN.

food is cheaper in Russia

I feel with every family in Canada 🇨🇦 things are getting real!!!!!

After Russian food prices all other grocery prices look illegal to you.

Walmart 2% milk in 4 litre bag is $6.08 Clip the bag and pour the milk into a lovely glass jug. Voila!!

Remember when Maestro olive oil 1L used to be 4.99 on sale 5 years ago and now it was 17.99 on sale! Olive oil is literally liquid gold now.

I have never considered Fortinos to be middle or upper middle class. Fortinos is known to be one of the expensive stores. Upper middle class is the regular Loblaws stores. I find Fortinos to be the highest priced items in the Loblaws brands. I used to Instacart so I see prices and see how much things cost on the regular.

Prices are a bit cheaper in Canada than in the US. Thanks for the great videos👌🏽🙏🏽🌹

Doritos were same price as Australia $5 for corn chips is a total rip off!

Apples 🍎 in my country is 5 for close to $4 We have different price for apples of 5 and oranges for 5 10 eggs for $2.90 Ice cream (Oreo) is $8.55

Foods from grocery stores should be vegetables, dairy, milk, eggs, flour, sugar, butter and meats. People should really stop of being lazy and cook more themselves, stop buying pre-made foods, frozen foods etc. I paid in my town 2 weeks ago for 18 eggs and they were 6.29$, 4 liter of milk 3.25% for 7.29$, 2 lettuces for 0.99 cents, butter at 4.99$ each so i bought 20 X 454 grams and frozen them in my freezer, i had cans of corn, green beans etc at 0.89 cents each and grab 24 of each etc. Chips, soft drinks, beer are not needed in every day life, they are fun once in a while but not regularly either. People need to prioritize their own priorities and not fall into the trap of consumption either, come back to reality.

Hahah. I called $108 for your groceries. Damn , im good . Sounds like a day in my life when i "forget" a few items

It’s actually worth growing your own food at that point

FYI, Sabra hummus is an Israeli product.

Jeez I thought America was expensive! The prices there are ultra expensive, it’s a shame nobody can afford to live anymore.

wow. eggs are so expensive. my country's high grade village eggs cost USD 3.60 for 30 eggs

Non organic eggs are way cheaper in Canada, don’t buy organic.

I miss the China videos :(

U CAN ADD 50/60% n SOME ITEMS DOUBLE THE PRICE U SHWOED IN THIS SHOW IS WHAT WE PAY HERE IN MID VANCOUVER ISLAND. ESPECIALLY ON QUADRA n CORTEZ ISLAND.U HAVE TO MAKE SPECIAL ABOUT WILL POP UR n UR AUDIENCE EYES. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THESE HURT A LOTS OF WORKING PEOPLE n SENIORS HWO COMPOSE THIS ISLANDS . THE FACTS ON QUADRA ISLAND REQUIRES A NATIONAL ATTENTION . THANKS 4 SHARING.

That bill is so insane. I had to rewatch the video to see watch you bought. Tips......making kefir and hummus are super easy and cheap. Don't buy process foods which you can make at home cheaply. The tomatoes were ridiculous, rather go without. The chips, not only expensive but some of the most toxic foods you can eat. Gnocchi, again so cheap and better to make at home. Olive oil, need to check as 80% are fake or blended. If you didn't include the Epson salts, tomatoes, hummus and kifir, the bill would have been at least CAD 25 cheaper. Bottom line.....the more it's processed and " convenient ", the more you pay.

There is absolutely zero difference between brown and white eggs simply white eggs are laid by white chicken and brown eggs are laid by Brown chickens otherwise no other difference

..And the grocery prices will balance themselves.......JT

I cannot believe the people of canada have allowed fraudo do this to your country. Wow 😢❤

The US prices you compared on screen butter etc are actually more expensive when converted to cad. Groceries in North America are ridiculous compared to uk.

Canadians are spoiled, I know because I had lived there for about 15 years. Dont complain about grocery expenses if you live in a luxury lifestyle and buy non-essential items like omega brown eggs, olive oil, snack, etc....seriously, I could just go with regular white eggs and skip on olive oil or snack.

2 chicken breasts is 10$ where i am. 10$!!! Went to the states recently a 6 pack of breasts was 4$, and im not talking about the premium stuff either, just normal standard chicken breasts. Insane.

Those high food prices aren't bothering the rich.

What is so special about brown eggs? Colour is important in fruits and veggies but not animal protein.

43.75 Canadian for 30 eggs. for this amount, I can get 270 village eggs

The prices are very reasonable compared to the USA

Chicken breast price doubled comparing to pre Covid

This is getting put of control people need to ript across Canada make these dirty greedy corporations fear for their lives

What madness?! Prices are like Harrods food court in London.

0:49 "I'm in the GTA", so I expect you'll be on the cover of Grand Theft Auto 6? lol!

Prices here in NY are out of control.

IT'S ALL DUE TO FAIR TRADE. If we only bought food that was produced within canada (self sufficient) and did NOT ALLOW FOODS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES then we would be sharing amongst each other and the $ stops in canada and the candian people.

You gotta get the No Name butter in the yellow package. That's always the cheapest

ya at 5:30 I saw you dont know about thrift as in sure those Free range 12 eggs where 18$ but the Pack of 30 right next to it being the Same Free range organic for 9,30$ just saying you need a Thrift person to shop with you.

Costco is the best place I won't step foot in superstore safeway save on whole foods walmart etc Costco best bang for your money hands down.

Double the money supply in two years and wonder why things cost double today.

What is the average pay in Canada? What is the average cost of living there?

I do love you chose sourdough which is more expensive but"made in house"which comes from a bag you mix with water. So not actually sourdough just a name of yet the other one was actual sourdough with a starter that's accountable and nutrient level well beyond the cheaper one you went for. When it comes to eggs I think Canadians are absolutely blind to the fact that Canadian egg standards don't require all of this b******* nest egg free-range omega-3 omega-6 attached to the eggs because actually all of them are basic standard across the board. They are just marketed based on diet and colour of yolk. Or humane standards are that level. I still can't see what store you're shopping at because I've never actually seen butter prices that high and I live in East York. Goes with the Canastoga egg brand while it's the more expensive regularly egg versus the Costco Canastoga which is smaller farmed sourced , higher grade feed and half the price. I will not even get into the alcohol price as Peroni is what you're highlighting as European beer 😅 meanwhile it's the cheapest in Italy. Loaker is mostly 2.99 at most stores on sale at 2.50. No idea about water bottles as you don't need to purchase bottle in most countries outside of North American

He went to the midst expensive grocery store, most go to the grocery stores that price match. There are a number of people who show you to do that.

Just came back from china and what a difference in food price😂

No frills have quite a lot of great deals, FYI

Last week I bought a pkg of 18 eggs for 4.99 in Canada.

I won't be able to take 3 half-boiled eggs for breakfast every morning if I'm in Canada.

These grocery store prices are same as here in SoCal. That’s why I go to Costco. Thanks

Why is the white eggs more expensive than brown eggs

lol I live in Canada and I certainly don’t pay those prices. 🙄.

Come to Alberta. It's so much more expensive! Olive oil is crazy! $25 cad easy . Steak? nevermind. Thanks for the video

So you left a perfectly beautiful country such as Malaysia to come live in canada of all places? Make it make sense

those prices are very cheap compare to the prices up way in the north of canada, everything is all flown in, the prices double or triple after

The price is very comparable to US. Its very expensive here as well.

Me and my family just go to Walmart cheaper then anything in this video and the same products. Although I am in Alberta. For example the $20 oil is $15. And 454 grams of butter for $5.70. It depends where in Canada you live and what stores you go to. Walmart is on top for the price trust me. A store about 3km from the Walmart sells chips for about $6 compared to Walmarts $4 for 235 grams. Or just get off brand chips for $1.50.
