It would be nice to be able to bring to light the price gouging that is taking place in Canada with regards to grocery stores.

the responsible minister claimed it's an immense task and will take til autumn. It will  only include 16 product categories (think flour, milk,etc.). And it will only be updated once a week.

I mean that's pretty pathetic. Better than nothing, but "only updated once a week" sounds like "the intern who has to enter the prices works only for 20 hours", not like they created an API and told the grocery chains to upload their prices.
