I dunno about NZ, but Canada printed pretty hard for COVID relief[0,1].

Regarding inflation, anecdotally food etc prices in Toronto seem much higher this year than last, and did last year too, but the CPI data doesn't share my opinion.

Our groceries seem to be at least 2x what they were in '05. Meanwhile, if anything, our tastes have gotten cheaper and we're better at bargain-shopping.

US CPI tells me they should only be 35% higher. LOL. Bullshit.
