   Grocery Store Pilot Project

   The rising cost of living continues to place significant pressure on many residents across Toronto. Food costs, in particular, represent one of the largest household expenses. As a result, food bank usage has increased dramatically throughout the city. In several neighbourhoods, residents face limited access to full-service grocery stores offering affordable, high-quality food. These areas are often referred to as “food deserts,” where the lack of accessible grocery options forces residents to rely on smaller convenience or boutique stores with significantly higher prices. Access to nutritious and affordable food is a key determinant of health. Too many Torontonians are experiencing food insecurity and related health challenges because healthy food options are simply unaffordable. The City of Toronto must explore innovative ways to improve food access and affordability. Making life more affordable for residents should remain a central goal of municipal government. Establishing City operated grocery stores could help increase access to affordable food while addressing food insecurity in underserved communities.
