Food

The RPC will work to ensure a sufficient portion of agricultural and food distribution capacity is owned and operated by the government and individual farmers so as to ensure every Canadian has safe and reliable access to the food which is their human right, with an operating policy which explicitly guarantees food security to all Canadians.

The RPC will legislate the creation of a public food industry sufficient to ensure that every Canadian citizen has safe and reliable access to nutritional, edible, and ethical food that meets all their personal needs.

The RPC will fund the research and development of commercially viable meat alternatives, such as vegan substitutes and lab-grown meat, and consequently fund the development of the large-scale production capacity to provide Canadian consumers high fidelity, ethically sourced, cost equivalent meat alternative options.

The RPC will legislate the requirement for unit price information (e.g., $/100g, $/100ml) on all products where applicable and require it to be at least the same font size on the price tag as the total price.
