How can the province ensure every community has access to healthy and affordable foods?
What public services and programs are needed to support sustainability throughout the food system?

Food Matters Manitoba is working with the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives Manitoba and communities across the province to build an Alternative Provincial Budget that reflects the priorities and needs of our communities.

Join us for a conversation so your experience and perspective can be included.
