Summary
This week on The Food Professor Podcast, Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois unpack the sharp rise in chicken prices, Canada’s growing dependence on imported poultry from the U.S., Quebec’s move to remove sales taxes from select grocery items, and mounting tensions around beef trade & import negotiations. Then, recorded live at SIAL Canada in Montreal, Karen Proud, President & Adjudicator of the Canada Grocery Code, joins the podcast once again live from the SIAL show in Montreal to discuss the early implementation of the industry-led code, supplier-retailer relationships, transparency, and the future of grocery sector accountability in Canada.
