Food prices in Canada could be about to surge again, and this time, it’s not just inflation. With fertilizer prices skyrocketing due to global tensions impacting the Strait of Hormuz, Canadian farmers are facing massive increases in input costs, including urea and nitrogen.But instead of fixing the root problem, the Canadian government is offering loans through Farm Credit Canada, leaving farmers to take on debt just to grow food.In this episode of Tap the Maple, we break down how global supply chain disruptions, energy policy, and Canada’s failure to fully utilize its natural resources are combining to create a perfect storm for rising grocery prices. From fertilizer spikes to diesel costs to food inflation, this is the story behind why your grocery bill could be about to explode.Is Canada becoming too dependent on global markets? Should we be producing more of our own fertilizer and energy? And why are farmers being forced to finance costs instead of seeing them reduced?This isn’t just about farming, it’s about affordability, food security, and the future of Canada’s economy.
