Canada's inflation rate was 0.8 per cent in December, the same as a month earlier and the lowest annual rate since late 2009.
Statistics Canada also reported Friday that alcohol, tobacco and food prices led the increase in prices of certain goods.
Consumer prices rose in all provinces, except Alberta. Across the country, Nova Scotia had the highest annual inflation rate, at 1.8 per cent.
The Bank of Canada's core index, which strips out volatile items like food and energy, declined slightly to 1.1 per cent from 1.2. That's the rate the bank pays closer attention to in setting interest rate decisions.
For 2012 as a whole, the average inflation rate was 1.5 per cent, the agency said, well down from the 2.9 per cent rate in 2011, and 1.8 seen in 2010.
Since 1992, Canada's inflation rate has averaged around 1.8 per cent.
