We at @DailyBreadTO are preparing for another storm. Fully implemented tariffs will cost the food bank $2.5m more just to maintain service levels to existing clients. Ottawa - invest new tariff revenue into a permanent affordable housing legacy

The Ontario election was a reminder that we are in an affordability crisis and we have an opportunity to renew our efforts to work with Government to ensure affordable housing and adequate income supports like Disability (ODSP) #onpoli via @torontostar.

Canada manufactures, with Canadian ingredients, only 10% of the food we eat. Something to think about during this unnecessary tariff war. Once again, those most vulnerable will be hit the hardest. #tariffs.

It was great to be alongside our member agency @FYfoodbank as they promote their important, needed and annual Coldest Day of the Year fundraiser. Last week this food bank served over 6,000 people in their neighbourhood.
Yesterday #DailyBreadTO member agency @FYfoodbank closed the market! Our CEO, @NCHetherington, joined them as they raised awareness of the growing food insecurity crisis in #Toronto. #hunger @TMXGroup

Today #DailyBreadTO CEO @NCHetherington deputed at the @cityoftoronto Budget Committee. With more than 1 in 10 people in Toronto accessing #foodbanks, the City must invest in #AffordableHousing, transit affordability & student nutrition. Watch here:
