The price of milk in Canada is on the rise again with the second increase this year set to take place in September.
The farm gate price will increase by about two cents per litre as of Sept. 1, an increase of 2.5 per cent.
The rate hike was announced Tuesday afternoon by the Canadian Dairy Commission (CDC), a crown corporation that says the sector is dealing with higher prices due to inflation.
"It's certainly bad news for consumers. It's bad news for families with children, since the increase will happen in September when back to school happens and when demand for fluid milk actually goes up," said Sylvain Charlebois, a professor of food policy at Dalhousie University.
