New data highlights ongoing challenges. @foodbankscanada #PovertyReportCards show signs Canada may be turning a corner, but food insecurity remains at record highs. We at the Archway Food Bank have seen a 74% increase in demand since 2019, echoing the urgent need for strong provincial action. BC received an overall grade of D-, which is lower than the national average grade of D+, suggesting poverty is worse in BC than the national average. Now is the time to push for real change. Join food banks across the country in calling for stronger support and solutions that reduce poverty and food insecurity. Visit Food Banks Canada’s 2026 Poverty Report Cards online to learn more and add your voice to the national call to action to support modern EI for Canada’s modern workforce. foodbankscanada.ca/poverty-report-card/ ...
