<p class=bodycopy><font size=1 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
9.0pt'>With nearly 900,000 Canadians seeking help from food banks
each month, there’s no denying that hunger is a real and immediate
problem. As we work to provide support in the short term to address
this need, it’s equally important to develop solutions that will
reduce hunger in the long term. This is a major focus of Food Banks
Canada’s research and advocacy work. We believe that only by peeling
away the layers can we understand how to address and resolve this
complicated issue.<br>
<br>
<strong><b><font face=Arial><span style='font-family:Arial'>Understanding
hunger in Canada</span></font></b></strong><br>
Food Banks Canada invests significant time in conducting research to
understand the complexities of hunger, and we propose viable solutions
that will have meaningful, long-term impact. Through our research and
analysis of the root causes of hunger we discovered that in the past
two decades, too many working-age people have found themselves
unemployed, on social assistance, or working in jobs offering low pay
and few non-wage benefits due to a radically changing job market.<br>
<br>
This is something that Daniel, age 38, knows all too well. As a
machine operator, he was laid off due to a shortage of work and has
been unemployed for several months. This has made life difficult for
Daniel, his partner and their four children. Daniel doesn’t want to
be using a food bank, but he needs to in order to get by. He is
frustrated at the challenges of finding work that would compensate
him at the same rate as his modest Employment Insurance earnings. “I
don’t like coming here, truthfully, but I gotta do what I gotta do,”
says Daniel.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately this is a situation that many Canadians find themselves
in. Our recent policy paper - <a
href="http://foodbankscanada.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=400a7172a7c30fdb7358e1a9e&id=8e6a9f4f5b&e=a30836600f"
target="_blank"><font color=darkorange><span style='color:darkorange'>Creating
Quality Sustainable Jobs and a Resilient Workforce in Canada</span></font></a> -
addresses the issues faced by the many Canadians who are being left
behind by the current job market and provides insightful
recommendations, particularly in the area of federal government
policy and legislation.<br>
<br>
