Original Note:
Most groceries are already tax-free. CRA considers most food and beverages to be "basic" grocery items, such as produce, bread, cereal, canned/frozen food, eggs, coffee, milk and meat. The tax break applies to non-essential food products such as carbonated drinks and snacks. https://www.cp24.com/news/canada/2024/11/21/which-items-will-be-tax-free-under-the-liberals-promised-gsthst-break/#:~:text=Many%20grocery%20items%20are%20already,and%20snack%20foods%2C%20are%20taxed.
