Canada is set to launch a new National School Food Program aimed at providing nutritious meals to school children. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced live from Nova Scotia that the program will help kids perform better in class and save the average family up to $800 a year on groceries. The initiative is designed to ensure that 400,000 children do not go to school hungry. Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland emphasized the importance of making the tax system fairer to support such initiatives. The program is expected to have a significant positive impact on the health and well-being of children across the country.
