GUELPH, Ont. — Last year, Canadian consumers experienced only modest increases in food prices. In fact, not only did food prices in general barely go up, but prices for fruit and vegetables decreased by more than 8 per cent. Unfortunately, this year will be a different story. Several forecasts predict food prices will go up anywhere from 1.5 per cent to 3.5 per cent, probably exceeding our national inflation rate.

Cupid’s weapon of choice is a bow and arrow, but Erick Sharp wanted something more explosive to propose to Stefanie Setacci, his girlfriend of five years. So he did what many love-struck Gryphons have done before: he painted a proposal on the campus cannon in hopes of winning her hand.
