A Toronto single mother says she left everything when she decided to move back to Canada from China with her two children.

The family had been living overseas, where her now ex-husband was working.

Helena said she and the children packed their bags in 2016 to “start over” again in Canada, leaving behind her husband, who she alleges was abusive.

Now she and the children — a 13-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy — live in a small, one-bedroom apartment in downtown Toronto.

Making ends meet as a single mother is difficult enough, but over the past few years, the COVID-19 pandemic and high inflation have made things even tougher for Helena.

As part of Global News' "Out of Pocket" series, we are looking at how inflation is impacting Canadian families living coast to coast.

Our Caryn Lieberman talks to Helena about how she is coping with making ends meet amid inflation.
