Lower food price before jacking up rents

This letter is in response to an article I read in the June 27 issue of Nunatsiaq News on the slight increase in social housing rents.

If the SHQ wants to have the rents mirrored to southern standards then before they are allowed to do this, they need to mirror the high cost of food and transportation to match southern prices.

If they want to jack up the rents, then jack down the food to the same prices in Provigo and other similar stores down south.
