The remarkable @rootscfc! In Thunder Bay to celebrate the opening of a stunning addition to their already beautiful space. Care + thoughtfulness in evidence everywhere. @aplaceforfood is proud to work alongside this committed group of community builders. Congrats to all involved.

Andi’s inspiring new book — her 10th! — hits so many beautiful, hopeful notes. See you at its launch this afternoon. You’ll be energized and leave full of good ideas and questions for all those mayoralty candidates that come a knockin! #thecityisus

.@aplaceforfood won’t be April fooled by the word “affordability.” For the people who access our centres and programs the word is pure spin, an attempt by government to sanitize reality—a reality characterized by stress, anxiety, poor health and diminished lives. Not a good prank

Nutrition month (March) is a poignant reminder of our abject failure to deliver on the right to food in Canada. While we landed a healthier food guide, MILLIONS can’t afford it. Join @aplaceforfood in our fight to create a country free of hunger and, yes, good nutrition for all!

Very sad to hear about the passing of Joe Virgona. A good friend and staunch supporter of the Community Food Centre (@aplaceforfood) movement. Sending lots of love to the Virgona/@fiestafarms family. Joe was always up to good mischief. #oneofakind #rip

“I didn’t get it” — Siakam confused as everyone else on what happened on last drive vs. Horford. Thought he got fouled, then he had the ball back and then they called a jump ball.🤷‍♂️

Thanks @JoshSmee @foodfirstNL for speaking out so clearly on the impossible circumstances faced by so many of our neighbours + squarely centring the conversation in the public policy realm. Whatever became of build back better? #incomematters #foodisahumanright #justicenotcharity

There's a growing national conversation happening about, as @njsaul puts it here, the "inflection point" we're at. Humbled and challenged to be playing a role in that conversation and glad for thoughtful coverage like this from @SarahSmellie (1/2) theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

@CharityCanada @UinvitedU @aplaceforfood @metromorning Nothing could be further from the truth @Charitycanada. Any self-respecting food banker would say the same. Only 1 in 5 food insecure Canadians ever turn to a food bank. Your response (“successfully filling the gap”) is why we need to continually challenge the charity narrative

@UinvitedU @njsaul @aplaceforfood @metromorning But it's similar to saying we shouldn't need Emergency Departments: with all the safety measures, seat belts, helmets, people shouldn't have accidents and need emergency care. In an ideal utopia, yes. But delays in social support, etc, and food banks successfully fill the gap.

Food security will NOT be achieved by food banks alone (which food banks themselves are screaming too right now) - please listen to this 7 min chat with @njsaul CEO of @aplaceforfood & @metromorning cbc.ca/listen/live-ra… Charity + Public Policy + CorpESG = all together now 🎶

Thanks @cbcradio for having @aplaceforfood on to talk food (justice not charity), public policy and mobilizing for social change. I just spoke with Kitchener, Thunder Bay, London, Yellowknife, Windsor, Victoria and Kamloops. Big props to all you early risers! #foodisahumanright

The Ford government has elevated bafflegab to an art form when it suggests Ontario Works provides people with financial security. Laughable except for the havoc it’s wreaking on people’s lives. Double the rates immediately and then let’s talk. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
