On June 30th, an excellent report on roles and responsibilities in Calgary's Food System will be presented to the Standing Policy Committee on Community and Protective Services. This will be a public hearing and is our opportunity to speak to city government about the importance of Food Policy. This is our time to make sure that Food Policy Moves forward in Calgary. This report is a brilliant step forward for food policy. This our time to create the food system we need!

The agenda for the meeting and the report itself. The food report starts on page 203 of the document.

The meeting of the Committee starts at 9:30am in the Engineering Traditions Committee Room, First Floor, old City Hall. Food Policy is the last item on the agenda, but we unfortunately have no idea how quickly the meeting will move. Show up at 9:30 and we will show that a sustainable food policy is key for this city!
