A record-setting number of people across the country used food banks this year, according to a new report from Food Banks Canada. The organization’s CEO, Kirstin Beardsley, says agencies across the country are seeing more people who never thought they would be seeking food assistance.

our government should give all low incomers a monthly gst credit, to help us with this high Inflation, it will help us to buy groceries rather people has to go to the food bank!!
You could thank Trudeau for this.
More government spending and free stuff for more inflation is her answer? Work and save money. Stop spending money on other junk, dope and booze.
Trudeau expenses 12 grand a month for food for his family. He also expenses to tax payers a private chef, kitchen staff and 2 nannies. Let that sink in. He's a narcissistic nut job. He thinks he's a king.
Disabilities can become abilities with the right kind of support.
They say Obesity is a problem in this country and if that is true then we can share food with one another so no one starves.
The best way to bring down food insecurity is to force big corporations to turn all the funds that they are hiding in offshore tax shelters. Stop relying on American Style nonprofit organizations to feed our people. Canada is far more socialist than the United States but we have been slipping as of late.
Liberal government giving millions to foreign aid while we have record homeless and record food bank use..
I'm glad someone actually raised up the point that the government neglect the single adults who work and yet were not given any support at all at times of hardship. Benefits are often for a family or a couple with kids but nothing for single adults.
In my day if you were broke &in need of help ..you got rid of unnecessary luxury items…going to food bank but have all channels, netflix, Disney etc., &rent movies etc., live above your means= even a car is luxury…til u can afford it…take a bus…
Hey CBC, why don't you hold Justin TurdEAU accountable? After all, this is his fault.
Oh wait, he pays you off !!!
Yet, we have money to send to Ukraine!
Thanks liberals and NDP!
And a lot of people who are older and too proud to go in food banks are starving or cannot afford meat anymore. And DEFINITIVELY need help for people with disabilities and illness . The people you don't see and can't barely afford 2 meals a day . YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU ! Be kind , do something for those people in your communities .
Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man without investment and I'll tell you how long it takes to go bankrupt. Investing creates a safe heaven for the future. With the right investment choice that has at least a 10% minimum risk and with the advice of an expert, profits and interest is guaranteed
We need to speak up trudeau is gonna pass bill c11 while we are all distracted,he could? Ban Twitter if it passes. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bR-8BdDi3Ww
RBC stock has doubles in 2 years. Most peoples are losing everything.. they are folding the monopoly game on us.
Even after all this massive spending of billions of dollars in this country you still have situations like this country.
Unfortunately for Canada the standard of living is declining and more and more individuals are going to find themselves in this predicament. The collapse of the Canadian dollar is not helping either. Imported goods are becoming more expensive, especially from the US.
Inflation and the ever-increasing cost of living are driving more more people to the food banks.
So government you just keep jacking up that carbon tax and putting more and more people into poverty!
Not only giving food but teaching people to make the most of what they are given would be a good idea. Do people know how to make soup anymore? I mean from broth and vegetables! My mother always had a pot of homemade soup, on the stove, it was potato in winter in summer it was vegitable. Most things were homemade from whatever she could get. People rely too much on packaged food which can be expensive. My mother would take soup she had made to a food kitchen. She would never see anyone go hungry.
The insane spending by the Trudeau government is the cause of all of it. We are $1 trillion in the hole because of Justin Trudeau my great grandchildren will not even be able to recover this evil. Prime Minister should’ve been fired years ago.
A bachelor apartment cost $1600's /monthly in the Kitchener ON! Food prices are going up, internet,hydro,heating .What a mess!
OIL 🛢 JOBS! MAKE PEOPLE RICH
We have been on a recession since the beginning of 2022, but big media and governments all over the world didn’t want to admit it. We need to be wise and use our brains. Knowledge is power and I’d like all the family to be powerful! I trade and hold profits, ROBERT RUSSEL DANIEL has been doing a great job reviewing all chart, trade and techniques on BTC which has enhance the growth of my portfolio to 9.5 BTC lately.
How can we help others when we cant even help ourselves
Good Luck on that lady cause it’s not going to happen anytime soon,the politicians in Canada are full of greed and control.
I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 80k in stocks (with the help of my Financial Advisor of course) and made about 246k, but guess what? I put it all back and traded with her again and now I'm rounding up close to a million.
Stop the climate change policies
