Abstract
• Global food supply chain has been unsteadied since 2020. • Results suggest stress on the wholesale supply chain. • Compounding effect of carbon pricing pushing wholesale prices to rise faster. • Shift in wholesale and industrial prices since introduction of carbon tax. This paper explores the implications of carbon-taxing policies on food supply chain affordability and competitiveness in Canada. Initiated with Alberta’s 2007 carbon levy, Canada’s approach to carbon taxation aims to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions while addressing the economic impacts on the food sector. With the federal carbon price set to rise to CAD $170 per ton by 2030, the study investigates the potential for increased food prices and the challenges to food affordability as well as identify the current gaps in understanding the intricacies of Carbon Taxing Policies on the Food Supply Chain in Canada. Graphic analyses and forecasts were created using data from Statistics Canada and the U.S. Census Bureau. The main findings of the analyses reveal shifts in wholesale and industrial prices since the carbon tax’s implementation. Findings suggest that carbon pricing may be affecting every level of the food supply chain, highlighting the need for further research to understand its full impact on food affordability and security.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
