It's time to act on Child Poverty
It's time to act on Child Poverty Act now to give all of Canada’s children the right to a decent life

We’d like to tell you that November 24 is a day to feel good about being a Canadian. But right now, we can’t. Twenty years ago, on November 24, 1989, all of our elected representatives voted in the House of Commons to make child poverty history in Canada by the year 2000. It was to be our legacy for the generations of the new Millennium.

End Child Poverty in Canada!

Make Poverty History

...to finally end Child Poverty in Canada! We're already 9 years behind schedule. Why should 637,000 Canadian children have to wait a minute longer?
It's time to act on Child Poverty

On November 24, 1989 Canada's House of Commons passed a resolution to end child poverty in Canada by the year 2000. Yet almost 1 Canadian child out of every 10 still lives in poverty - in one of the richest countries in the world. Shockingly, these figures don't even include First Nations and… Continue

Thank You Hamilton Farm Market for your generous ongoing weekly food donations.


In January I approached the owner Imran Mian of the Hamilton Farm Market 969 Upper Ottawa Hamilton and asked him if he could help with the Poverty issues in our City by donating food to the Cafe Adonai a local food bank who doesn't receive any funding. The Cafe feeds people supper every Wednesday evening and opens their food bank every Wednesday and Thursday at noon to anyone in need.

Imran Mian immediately said YES he would like to help in anyway he could.
I showed up the following Wednesday morning and he and his employees generously loaded up my car with Fresh Fruit and Vegetables.
I was overwhelmed by their willingness to help others, their kindness and generosity.

Every week since Hamilton Farm Market has stepped up to the plate with their big hearts and happy smiles providing fresh fruit and vegetables to help feed people in our community who are in the most need. Without this help these people would not be able to provide proper healthy food for themselves and their families.

We hope and pray that some day food banks will be a thing of the past, unfortunately in these times it is a growing need. Until the poverty issues are addressed and resolved your generous support will be a necessity.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for being selfless, loving and caring and giving to others in our community who need you the most.

When others turn a blind eye you are being the change!

Thank you Imran Mian of Hamilton Farm Market
