NGM is dedicated to shifting power in the food system back to the local level, and we know there is an urgent need for candidates to commit to creating better food policy that supports food justice and food security. Our communities need bold action now. We are inviting candidates from all political parties across the Strathcona and Edmonton Centre ridings to attend this meeting. We believe this will generate meaningful discussion and provide an opportunity for the public to learn about your thoughts on rising food insecurity and food system reform.
