Why does Canada need a food policy?

Canada currently has NO National Food Policy... and it urgently needs one!

There are serious problems with our current food system that the government has a responsibiltiy to address:

  • Close to 2 1/2 million Canadians have trouble putting food on the table every day.
  • One in four Canadians is considered obese.
  • We are losing thousands of family farms every year.
  • Canada is the only G8 country with no nationally-funded school meal program.
  • Food production and distribution account for 30-54% of greenhouse gas emissions.
