The average Canadian spent a combined $29,989 on groceries during the 2022 and 2023 calendar years.

Canadian taxpayers paid an average of over $1,500 a week for Trudeau’s household grocery bill over two years, according to access-to-information documents obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.

According to the records, Trudeau racked up $97,645 in grocery expenses, with taxpayers forced to pay $81,428 in the 2022-2023 fiscal year. The year prior, he spent $91,218 in grocery expenses, billing taxpayers $76,214.

Together, Trudeau spent $188,864 on “food and food preparation” over the course of the two fiscal years, sticking Canadians with a grocery tab of $157,642.

A Canada Food Price report said the average Canadian spent a combined $29,989 on groceries during the 2022 and 2023 calendar years. According to CTF calculations, that adds up to an approximate $288 per week.

Conversely, Trudeau’s weekly tax paid bill to Canadians amounted to an average of $1,515 in household food expenses.

“Taxpayers should not be paying a single cent for a prime minister’s personal groceries,” Franco Terrazzano, the federal director for the CTF, told True North. “Prime ministers take a huge taxpayer-funded salary, and they can pay for their own groceries like everyone else.”
