Sure. Thank you.
I know that previously at committee, there was Food Banks Canada. I know that although Canadians spend about 10% of their disposable income on food, there are definitely regions and remote areas in Canada where people spend far more, and food is not affordable for those segments of the population. It disproportionately affects those segments of the population across the country, so we absolutely recognize that this is an issue.
This goes back to the importance of having the national food policy as a whole-of-government approach. We really do need to bring in other federal departments and the provinces to coordinate on an approach to address food affordability across the country.
For FCPC's part, we play an active role in supporting Food Banks Canada. Our member companies individually play active roles in contributing and working closely with Food Banks Canada as well as participating in breakfast programs, for example, across the country. That's company-driven as well. But absolutely, food and security is a big issue and a big challenge in Canada.
