Summary

Nutrition North Canada (NNC), is a retail subsidy program implemented in 2011. Its purpose is to reduce the cost of nutri- tious food for residents living in Canada’s remote, northern communities. The present study provides an update on the impact of NNC on food cost and availability using the latest data available from the Government of Canada website. We also evaluate the program’s 2016 engagement process and changes to retailer and supplier compliance reporting over the course of the subsidy’s existence.
