Cost of the Revised Northern Food Basket in 2019-2020
Table of contents
Overview
The tables below show the cost of the Revised Northern Food Basket (RNFB) in communities eligible for the Nutrition North Canada (NNC) program. The amounts are estimates of what it cost to feed a family of 4 a healthy diet for 1 week.
For comparison purposes, the tables also show the cost of the RNFB in March 2011 (under the Food Mail Program) and March of each fiscal year of NNC's operation. The tables also provide information for the 2019 to 2020 quarters, to help monitor trends over time.
In communities eligible for a full subsidy under Nutrition North Canada the average cost of the Revised Northern Food Basket in March 2020 was $4.93, 1.17% less expensive than in March 2019. Lower by $9.34 (2.19%) compared to March 2011, prior to the launch of the NNC program.
According to Statistics Canada, food purchased from stores prices elsewhere in Canada raised by 2.4% between March 2019 and March 2020, and increasing by 16.9% over 9 years.
The cost of the Revised Northern Food Basket between March 2019 to March 2020 decreased in 53 communities in the regions of Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Ontario and Quebec. Overall, in 73 eligible communities out of 116 the RNFB cost growth was at a rate lower than the 2.4% Consumer Price Index growth rate for food purchased outside of the RNFB program in the same period.
Cost of the Revised Northern Food Basket in 2019 to 2020
The cost of the basket was calculated with price data provided by the following retailers:
- Fédération des coopératives du Nouveau-Québec (FCNQ)
- North West Company (NWCO)
- Rampart
- Stanton
Notes:
n/a = not available
The cost of the Revised Northern Food Basket is calculated using the price data received from registered Northern retailers with NNC that have a store in an eligible community.
The cost of the RNFB may not be available in the communities where local stores are not registered with the NNC program but access the subsidy by purchasing eligible items from registered suppliers. RBFB costs may also not be available for communities where the provided food price data could not be used accurately and consistently to calculate the cost of the RNFB.
Eligible communities (excluding Nain and Rigolet) in Newfoundland and Labrador lack a registered Northern retailer with NNC. Therefore the program is not able to estimate the cost of food in those communities. Food price data for Nain and Rigolet are collected from the listed store in the communities.
Arctic Co-operatives Ltd. price data from co-op stores in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories have been excluded in the calculation of the cost of the basket in order to maintain the consistency of the current report with the previous ones.
Quebec North Shore communities are only eligible for a few weeks when marine services are not available. Gethsémani (La Romaine) is the only community in the region with NNC registered retailer.
The RNFB cost in Norman Wells in March 2011 is missing price data from one of the community's registered retailers and that is why it is much lower than the other periods.
The RNFB cost is not available for Old Crow, Yukon. The community lacks reliable price data to calculate the basket cost for the 67 items.
◊ Berens River, Williams Harbour, Tuktoyaktuk, Black Lake and Stony Rapids were removed from the program in 2018 as they no longer met eligibility requirements. Therefore the number of program eligible communities decreased to 116. For consistency and comparative purposes the tables display the RNFB cost for the above communities in the previous periods.
The cost of the Revised Northern Food Basket was reviewed for all fiscal years. A modification of the calculation methodology was made for the frozen apple juice concentrate and frozen orange juice concentrate. To reflect quantity of serving of 33mL for frozen apple juice concentrate and 282mL for frozen orange juice concentrate instead of measuring the reconstituted weight for consumption of the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) or the Adequate Intakes (AIs).
