Here's a list of June inflation rates for selected Canadian cities

Canada’s June inflation settled at 2.7 percent, revealing significant regional disparities. Major urban centers like Toronto and Calgary reported higher rates, while smaller cities experienced notably lower figures. However, Statistics Canada warns that local data relies on small samples, making city-specific rates volatile and potentially unreliable for precise local economic analysis. This instability underscores the necessity for cautious interpretation of granular statistical data. This highlights a core open data challenge: while aggregate metrics are robust, sub-national datasets often suffer from limited sample sizes. Open data initiatives must address these reliability gaps to ensure that localized insights remain meaningful and actionable for policymakers and researchers.
