Hi Igor,
When you compare price u should also consider UDS vs CAD exchange rates. CAD has 30% lower value in comparison to USD I.e 1 USD = 1.3 CAD. So it is obvious that in Canada the prices will be atleast 30% more for most of the products.

As an American in Canada I can assure you almost all products are more expensive up here in Canada. But I find pork to be cheap here in Alberta.

Eggs, Poultry and Dairy are very strictly price and supply controlled in Canada to keep the prices high.

Do you like such videos? Exchange rate? USA as still cheap!

Canada has the Canadian Dollar and the US has the US Dollar.. so this comparison is of equal $$, because you're not taking into account the exchange rates between the two countries. The Can/Dollar has a different value than the US/Dollar.

Hi Igor! I just wanna say, your videos are AWESOME! And very helpful! Keep going! (Btw Real Canadian SuperStore is the best grocery store in Canada)

[njam]

The currency conversion should be shown and that many of the items are actually cheaper in Canada!

[ammarseud]

Does the US also have taxes you would need to pay on top of the price mentioned on the price tag?

[NationalGhost]

Hello igor ...
I wanna request to u ...u should be add subtitle with your video bcoz i am unable to understand your accent sometimes not all .and u should do it ..bocoz may be here is like u...

[sstewart]

The eggs. You compared generic 18 to a speciality 18 by the looks of it. And not providing what state (each state has different taxes) and the exchange rate of the days you filmed. Not a great comparison.

[new_nonsense]

Why dairy is expensive in Canada is due to Canadian regulations. But life in Canada is in general more expensive that USA. Although I recently visited Calgary was impressed how the cost of living there is cheaper than Ontario! Ill take 5 percent taxes. Less sales taxes than US also

Igor, I am seeing walmart of same large size like US in Ottawa region. There are some smaller walmarts in US too. Somehow, the quality of walmart here is better than walmarts in the most interior states of the US.

[shashisonu]

Is that the Walmart on mcleaod trail one in Acadia ?

[ruanpienaar]

I enjoy your videos, but you should not compare USD to CAD. Yes the US will still be lower, but you are making it look way worse than it is by treating the USD asif its the CAD. Compare it after exchange rates and taxes, that would be the best way.

I love you Igor. You are my one true love

The US products might be cheaper sometimes but they will be full of pesticides and other poisons. American products don't meet the basic food standards of the UK and EU so are not allowed to be sold there. No doubt the Canadian products are healthier, or at least not so unhealthy, and so therefore costs more.

The price of milk is a good indication of the gouging happening in the USA. Canada has a milk marketing board that uses economists to determinet the price of milk. Based on exchange rates, the milk in Calgary is much cheaper than in the USA. USA heavily subsidizes its milk supply, so what gives- gouging. In Canada, people complain of the high cost of milk set by a committee of government, suppliers and producers, which is now delivering milk cheaper than the land of free enterprise/

Our dollar sucks in comparison to the US in fact every fiat currency in the world is going to go down in comparison to the US dollar until the entire system collapses. The US dollar is only looking “stronger” because every other country’s currency is falling. It’s wild. A country as rich as Canada - speaking in natural resources terms - the real economy - we shouldn’t have this expensive cost of living but that is the world
