This month’s Table Talk falls on May Day, both an ancient celebration of the promise of Spring and a modern day of remembrance of the ongoing fight for social justice. It seems very fitting then to invite food researcher Valerie Tarasuk for an exploration of approaches to reducing food insecurity in Canada, with a glimpse into the implications of current policies — both intended and unintended.
