In this episode of the 2030 Project, what is the real cost of having our kids go to school without breakfast? Or, what is the ROI of a universal breakfast program? – No means testing - just an expectation that every child attending school will start the day with a proper, nutritional meal.   We are joined by Judith Barry. Co-Founder &amp; Government Relations Director. Breakfast Club of Canada, John Stapleton. Writer, instructor, and former Innovations Fellow with the Metcalf Foundatio, and Dr. Dina Kulik, Pediatrician. .

The Reckoning is coming.

What would it take to eliminate poverty in Canada by 2030? The 2030 Project explores why poverty persists, and what we can do about it. Join host Dave Trafford as he speaks with elected officials, people with lived experience, researchers, and policy wonks to uncover what has been successful with Canada’s Poverty Reduction Strategy and what needs to come next. Non-partisan, candid, and thought-provoking, The 2030 Project tackles some of the biggest and most social pressing issues facing Canada today, such as universal basic income, digital access, disability rights, and the future of work. This podcast is sponsored by Daily Bread Food Bank, a Toronto-based charity whose mission is to collaborate with all to eliminate food insecurity and advocate for solutions to end poverty.
