On the issue of rising inflation, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made new announcements about housing and grocery prices.
These announcements were made by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau yesterday after the end of the Liberal Caucus meeting.
He has also asked the big grocery owners of the country to come up with a plan to bring stability in grocery prices.
Trudeau warned that they will take action if grocery owners are unable to prepare such plans by Thanksgiving.
The federal government also announced legislation to give more powers to the Competition Bureau.
Along with this, Trudeau said that the federal Liberal government will remove the GST on materials used to build new rental housing.
The measure is one of the several new government policies aimed at reducing the cost of living.
The NDP has welcomed this decision of the federal government.
NDP leader Jagmeet Singh said that this decision should have been taken several months ago.
