Caught in another LIE
Chicken is expensive in Canada due to high demand caused by soaring beef prices, coupled with supply shortages driven by avian influenza and a scarcity of chicks.
Chicken prices in Canada currently range from roughly $6.48 to $17.58 per kilogram, heavily depending on the specific cut you are purchasing. Retail prices have seen upward pressure throughout 2026 as high beef costs have driven more Canadian shoppers to switch to chicken, straining the domestic supply chain.
