A person selects fresh tomatoes from a box at an outdoor market stand, with various vegetables and baskets of greens visible on the table. Other people are blurred in the background.

Every day in Canada, 1 in 4 people worry about eating, compromise on the quantity and quality of their groceries, and/or go without food due to financial constraints.

Food insecurity disproportionately impacts some groups, including Indigenous and racialized peoples, people with disabilities, immigrants, renters, and single people aged 18 to 64 who are living alone.

By the time people report experiencing food insecurity, they already have issues meeting their basic needs: from paying rent to buying prescription medication.

Food insecurity is a Canada-wide problem and an issue in every community—including yours.

Our Food Security Now website provides detailed data on poverty and food insecurity for every riding in Canada.
