> A national survey indicates that Canadian food banks and shelters cannot provide enough food to meet rising demand. Ipsos, commissioned by food rescue charity Second Harvest, found that 89 per cent of organizations surveyed saw demand increase over the past year. One in three have food-program waitlists, and more than a third have turned people away because of limited resources.
