努纳武特议员Lori Idlout呼吁拉布拉多北部居民向联邦政府表达对高粮价的担忧, Nunavut MP Lori Idlout has called on northern Labrador residents to voice concerns to the federal government about high food prices, which she describes as "inhumane." 她辩称,目前联邦对边远土著社区的补贴方案不足。 She argues that the current federal subsidy program for remote Indigenous communities is inadequate. 北方事务部以燃料和运输成本上升为由,正在审查明年年初与当地社区举行会议以解决这些问题的方案和计划。 The Department of Northern Affairs, citing rising fuel and transportation costs, is reviewing the program and plans to meet with local communities early next year to address these issues.
