In a CNBC article, Buffett stated, “Inflation has started to accelerate “due to multiple factors, including increasing demand and struggles with some areas of the supply chain” as well as filling in for the inflation that should have happened last year but didn’t due to the abnormal economic year from pandemic impacts.”
The CNBC article continued to quote the legendary investor, “We’ve got nine homebuilders in addition to our manufacture housing and operation, which is the largest in the country. So we really do a lot of housing. The costs are just up, up, up. Steel costs, you know, just every day they’re going up. It’s very interesting. We are raising prices. People are raising prices to us and it’s being accepted.”

A growing number of construction companies across Canada are putting time and money into starting their own Indigenous relations departments to help improve how they work with Indigenous communities and possibly address a coming labour shortage.
While the duties of each department vary from company to company, many look to employ Indigenous workers, hire Indigenous subcontractors, and collaborate with Indigenous leaders to plan construction projects.
