The annual pace of inflation slowed last month as lower gasoline and electricity prices offset higher costs in most of the other categories.
Overall, Statistics Canada says prices were one per cent higher in June compared to a year earlier.
The June number followed inflation readings of 1.3 per cent in May and 1.6 per cent in April.
A consensus of economists had predicted one per cent inflation for April, according to Thomson Reuters.
Statistics Canada said weaker gasoline prices last month were a primary contributor behind inflation's deceleration, as pump prices contracted 1.4 per cent compared to a year earlier.
The agency is also releasing retail trade figures for May, which showed a third straight month of growth. Total sales increased 0.6 per cent from April.
