Super Saving Special: CTV News Ottawa wants to help you save money
Everyday life in Canada is getting more and more expensive.
Statistics Canada reported Wednesday that Canada's annual inflation rate climbed to 4.8 per cent last month, the highest mark since 1991.
Grocery prices have never been higher, thanks to supply chain issues and rising inflation. Gas prices are soaring. And more Canadian families are finding their wallets squeezed by routine expenses.
