Since the start of the tariff war with the US, food inflation has spiked following a steady decline since the start of 2023. Between January and April 2025, restaurant menu prices have already risen by 3.2%\u2014outpacing the overall inflation rate of 2.1%.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Restaurants Canada is concerned and is doing everything we can to protect the interests of the industry. We have been active on this file since December and will continue to do so until the dispute is resolved. While we have had some success in getting the Canadian Government to exempt key items that are impossible to source from other producers, the cost of food continues to rise.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the last two weeks, Kelly Higginson and I have been in Ottawa, lobbying to have the automatic remission order extended to products used by our industry.\u202fThe automatic remission order is an exemption from tariffs to allow the importer of record more time to source products from non-US suppliers. We have engaged key officials at the Department of Finance, Global Affairs Canada, members of the House of Commons International Trade Committee, and key Senators involved in this matter.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We believe there may be an opportunity to have the remission order expanded. In partnership with our Tariff Working Group, we are developing an economic impact assessment of the effects of our exclusion from the automatic remission order. Once completed, this document will form the basis of further advocacy in Ottawa.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note that any success on this issue applies only to importers of record, but the removal of the tariffs on certain products should result in lower costs for restaurants.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We continue to push hard to mitigate the impacts of this tariff war on behalf of our industry.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Our GST\/HST campaign is gaining momentum<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the three weeks that our <a href=\"https:\/\/foodisfood.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Food is Food<\/a> campaign has been active, more than 2,000 Canadians have already signed our petition calling on the government to exempt all food from sales taxes! We have also been very active in the media, raising the campaign\u2019s profile and driving Canadians to the petition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this is having an impact in Ottawa. The message has been very well-received so far in our meetings with politicians. Now that the House of Commons has risen for the summer, we will be seeking meetings with the MPs of the top 100 foodservice ridings at their home offices and delivering the signed petitions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be successful, we need to keep the momentum going.
