"When your rent is taking 80 or 90% of your income, that isn't a budgeting problem...people come to food banks because they have no choice." #TVOTheThread examined food insecurity in Ontario & the stigma some people may feel from using one @tvoyoutube.com/watch?v=uTGKHJnB…
Feed Ontario says 1 million people are accessing food banks in the province a sign, they say, that people are "drowning" in the current affordability crisis.
They're calling on the Ford gov't to "reduce the torrent of poverty" in Ontario.
#ONpoli
"As food banks across Ontario and Canada face unprecedented demand, food insecurity is growing, particularly among low-income families and those on a fixed income."
