Bill C-212

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
December 14, 2021
School Food Program for Children Act
  • Bill C-212, the School Food Program for Children Act, aims to develop a national school food program in Canada. The goal is to ensure that all children have access to healthy food, especially in a school setting. This bill recognizes that many Canadians, including children, struggle with food insecurity. It also acknowledges the importance of nutrition for the health and development of children. Currently, Canada does not have a national school food program, making it one of the few countries in the OECD without one. The bill acknowledges that education and health are provincial matters, so developing a national program will require collaboration with all provinces. The Minister of Health, in consultation with representatives from provincial governments, will develop the program, which will include criteria for determining healthy foods, an assessment of funding options, and a focus on evidence-based healthy food education.
