Canada needs a new Consumer price index

Adjust the consumer price index to more truly reflect the real prices Canadians are paying.

Why is this important?

Seniors and all those Canadians dependant on indexed pensions are falling way behind. In the last 10 yrs the CPI is up 20.7% but wheat is up 33.3%, beef is up 55.9%, housing is up 81.2%.oil is up 41.5%(after the bubble burst) and copper is up 69.8%. (see chart in Bullion Buzz 2015-11-11). It hurts us and it hurts the economy because if we don't have the mpney we can't spend it.
