It is an approach to understanding and addressing the linkages within food systems (social, health, environmental, and economic components of food systems) and a plan for making decisions about food. The vision is: All people in Canada are able to access a sufficient amount of safe, nutritious, and culturally diverse food. Canada’s food system is resilient and innovative, sustains our environment and supports our economy. The Food Policy is organised in four priority action areas to advance progress towards the six priority outcomes. The Six long-term interconnected and mutually-reinforcing outcomes are: 1) Vibrant communities: Improved community capacity and resilience to food-related challenges; 2) Increased connections within food systems: Increased governance spaces and partnerships that connect multiple sectors and actors across the food system; 3) Improved food-related health outcomes: Improved health status of Canadians related to food consumption and reduced burden of diet- related disease, particularly among groups at higher risk of food insecurity; 4) Strong Indigenous food systems: To be co-developed in partnership with Indigenous communities and organizations; 5) Sustainable food practices: Improvements in the state of the Canadian environment through the use of practices along the food value chain that reduce environmental impact and that improve the climate resilience of the Canadian food system; 5) Inclusive economic growth: Improved access to opportunities in the agriculture and food sector for all Canadians within a diversified, economically viable, and sustainable food system.
