It's time to address #poverty & #foodinsecurity in Canada. Canadians are facing an affordability crisis, and people living with disabilities are twice as likely to be living in poverty. This has to change. It's time for a fully funded #Canada Disability Benefit. (1/2)

Fun fact: #DidYouKnow that zucchini is botanically a berry? 🤔 Skids of this nutrient-dense squash invaded our warehouse this week. We are so #grateful to our donors for enabling us to get this fresh produce out to those experiencing hunger across #Toronto !

We're glad to see the federal gov't take action to support low-income Canadians facing record food #inflation . But the only way to end #hunger in our communities is through policies focused on 1️⃣ income security, 2️⃣ decent work and 3️⃣ #affordablehousing .
