2021 Federal Election

Find out how candidates in Ottawa responded to our survey on Good Food

Much as we had done during the 2019 Federal Election, the Ottawa Food Policy Council sent a letter to all candidates in the Ottawa region with the goal of bringing Good Food to the table as a priority in the House of Commons for the upcoming term (2021-2025). The OFPC has again asked candidates to answer questions regarding their incorporation of Good Food in their platform and to champion policy- and decision-making that prioritizes Good Food in Canada. We invite you to review candidate responses and vote for candidates who will promote Good Food Systems for All.
