Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman and the members of the committee, for the invitation to appear today.
I'm coming to you from Musqueam territory, also known as Richmond, B.C., in greater Vancouver.
I'm representing Food Secure Canada, a national alliance of organizations and individuals committed to achieving zero hunger, healthy and safe food and a sustainable food system for all. We're happy to provide you with evidence to support your study to identify policies and measures that the Government of Canada can take to ensure stability and renewal of the value chain in the agri-food sector.
This presentation is further to the brief we submitted to you in July, based on our study published in May, entitled “Growing resilience and equity: A food policy action plan in the context of Covid-19”.
