Food insecurity and poverty in Canada: 2025 slide deck

September 30, 2025

Looking for up-to-date, fully referenced statistics on food insecurity and poverty across Canada?

This slide deck brings together the latest national and provincial data, with breakdowns by region, economic family type, population group, disability, immigration status, and more.

Designed as an advocacy tool, it complements the federal data available on foodsecuritynow.ca and is ideal for meetings with MPs, policy briefs, funding proposals, community reports, and training sessions.

To make it easy to use, we’re sharing the deck in two formats: editable slides and a PDF version.

This slide deck includes:

  • Definitions of food insecurity, poverty, family types, sex/gender, and other key terms.
  • National and provincial rates of food insecurity (2022–2024).
  • Poverty rates by region, family type, age, disability, race, Indigeneity, and immigration status.
  • Data on gender identity and sexual orientation, where available.
  • Fully cited StatsCan and other sources.
  • Contact information for the Policy & Community Action team.
