CBC’s Marketplace breaks down how it works, how it affects your wallet and how you can fight back — including by lowering your own grocery bill. #FoodPrices #Groceries #costofliving producer/director JENNY COWLEY KATIE PEDERSEN associate producer TOMI RAJI reporter CHRIS GLOVER editor JESSICA RUTHERFORD BENNY KOSHY camera JOHN LESAVAGE DAVE MacINTOSH NORMAN ARNOLD RUDI PAWLYCHYN MARC ROBICHAUD PATRICK LOUISEIZE MIKE ZIMMER art director DAVID ABRAHAMS special thanks LOUIS RIEL ARTS & TECHNOLOGY CENTRE social media producers CAROLINE GDYCZYNSKI KIT KOLBEGGER colour correction KYLE J.
