The cost to feed a family of four in northwestern Ontario is keeping pace with the inflation rate.
The Northwestern Health Unit says this year, their Healthy Food basket costs about 941 dollars a month.
That's up about 23 dollars from last year, or about 2.6 percent.
Public health nutitionist Julie Slack says that might not sound like a lot, but social assistance rates have only increased by five percent in the last 14 years.
