Food, Cooking, and Cost: How Are You Managing?

This anonymous survey asks about your experiences with food, cooking, and the rising cost of living in Ontario.

Many people on low incomes — including those receiving Ontario Works — are struggling to afford groceries, prepare meals, and keep up with basic needs. Your answers will help show what’s really happening in households across the province.

We do not collect names, emails, or any identifying information.

Your responses will be combined with others and used to support advocacy, public awareness, and policy discussions about food insecurity and the cost of living in Ontario.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to share your experience. Your voice helps make the reality of food insecurity impossible to ignore.
