According to new data, over one million Ontarians used food banks in the past year, reflecting a significant 25% rise in food bank visits.
CEO Carolyn Stewart emphasized that the continued rise in food bank visits is alarming, indicating a problem exacerbated by inflation and housing costs.
Stewart highlighted that the ongoing demand for food banks, particularly among working individuals, showcases a troubling trend in food insecurity.
Feed Ontario urges immediate government action to address the escalating issues of food insecurity and poverty in light of unprecedented food bank usage.
