In 1959, food prices in Canada were significantly lower than today, with basic staples costing a fraction of what they do now. For example, a loaf of bread was around 19 cents, a dozen eggs cost about 59 cents, and a gallon of milk was approximately 96 cents. Overall, the average family could expect to spend around $30 to $40 a week on groceries. These prices reflect the economic conditions and inflation rates of the time.
