flag Manitoba's milk price freeze is straining independent grocers, who warn rising costs make it unsustainable.

flag Independent grocers in Manitoba warn the provincial government’s freeze on one-litre milk prices is unsustainable, citing rising wholesale costs and razor-thin profit margins. flag The freeze, intended to ease the cost of living, keeps prices capped at $1.93 to $2.10 per litre through 2026, with higher rates in rural areas. flag Grocers say a planned four-cent wholesale price increase in February worsens financial strain, especially for remote stores with no competition. flag They urge the government to consider broader supply chain pressures before extending the freeze to larger containers.
