The policy averted thirty-three deaths between 2020 and 2023, with the actual number of deaths being three hundred eight instead of three hundred forty-one. The province mandated air conditioning in all homes by 2022, with all homes now complying, except for two.

Dynamic Pricing in Grocery Stores: A New Era of Unpredictable Food Costs This podcast episode delves into the emerging trend of dynamic pricing in grocery stores, a concept previously reserved for industries like airlines and hotels. With the advent of digital shelf labels, stores can now adjust prices in real-time, leading to potential fluctuations in the cost of essential items like milk and bread. A study in a Seattle grocery store found that the same basket of groceries could cost anywhere from $114 to $124, potentially adding up to an extra $1,200 a year for families. This unpredictability raises concerns about fairness and trust, as shoppers may feel compared against each other rather than simply comparing different stores.
