Description

The author compares retail price data for selected food items from Fox Lake's local store against respective retail prices for similar products in Alberta, over a five year period from 2017 to 2021. The objective of the study was to investigate disparities in price levels, assess the extent to which temporal changes in food prices were driven by COVID-19 in Fox Lake, and to examine the implications of potentially higher food prices on the living wage requirements of First Nations households in the community.
