Tackling Food Insecurity In Canada with Barbe Dunn and Jim & Jacintha Collins
Canadians' food insecurity is at a high, and many families have been grappling with rising food prices these past years.
The Canadian Food Price Report for 2023 estimates that a family of 4 can expect an increase of $1,065 on their grocery bill for the same food in 2022. This is on top of the $1000 increase a family of 4 experienced in 2022.
47% of Canadians say they are now purchasing cheaper alternatives, and Food Banks Canada reported nearly 1.5 million visits across our nation in 2022.
5.8 million Canadians lived in food-insecure households in 2021 as well.
This is why the excellent work of our guests today is so important and inspiring.
Barbe Dunn from Loaves and Fishes in Kindersley, Saskatchewan, and Jim and Jacintha Collins from Harvest Hands in Ontario join us to talk about how they are tackling food insecurity in their local communities. Because of their excellent work, thousands of families are being given food that otherwise would have been thrown in landfills.
Thanks for joining us.
