General Event Description:

Eat Think Vote is a campaign that gathers community members across Canada to speak with federal candidates ahead of the upcoming election. Our goal is to make sure that food is an election issue, and that the incoming government develops policy that encourages a food system that is sustainable, where no one goes hungry, and where food is healthy. The focus for this campaign is food security and access to safe, nutritious, sustainably produced, and culturally appropriate food.



Eat Think Vote, Richmond will give an opportunity for Richmond community members to share their food-related aspirations and concerns with federal candidates. All are welcome!

This event will take place on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples.
