‘We waste more food than we consume’: Study finds more than half of food produced in Canada is wasted'We waste more food than we consume': Study finds more than half of food produced in Canada is wasted I made a choice last year to go to the grocery store more often, buy only what I need, and use it up. It’s a much healthier way to live. Everyone should make a conscious effort. Bargain food stores subsidiaries of Loblaws, Dominion and such are a result of all the food they through out. Instead of throwing it out they sell it at a cheaper price just before it needs to be tossed. The stuff that needs to be tossed goes to food banks for a tax right-off. Surprised the numbers aren’t actually higher and would imagine a geographical breakdown shows higher waste in urban areas where there is less connection to where and how food is produced. Buy local and buy from a farmer.

More than half of food produced in Canada is wasted: studyMore than half the food produced in Canada is wasted and the average kitchen tosses out hundreds of dollars worth of edibles every year, says a study researchers are calling the first of its kind. I don't see a single food on that picture that could even plausibly be produced in Canada. Meanwhile, my kid's lunch pail may be a culprit of the wastage. Fines should be levied at supermarkets if food is wasted, mark it down so many of us could eat better or donate it. Most times I bet your struggling employees would like some too. Exactly who the fuck eats vegetables stop wasting time and plant more animals 😎

British Columbians care about food, not service, willing to overpay for a good meal: pollOnly one in twenty B.C. residents, or five per cent, would go back to a restaurant where the service is great but the food is terrible. I agree with that, expect for the overpaying.

Nine out of 10 Vancouverites are within minutes of frequent transit: studyThe report showed only New York has a larger percentage of its population with a 10-minute walk or bike ride of a frequent transit stop. Ya have two bus stops within blocks of each other. Blockhead Being within minutes of fast transit and having that transit go to where people want to go are 2 different stories. Our transit system is built like a wheel with spokes all going to Van, but we want to be able to move between communities which is impractical in current system If the majority live near transit then why the hell am I always stuck in traffic? 🙄
