There is no lie, because schools quite literally do not provide free food where I live.
Everything else you speak of fine, and I have no problem with it, but let me repeat in case you decide to insert something into what I said that I didn't (again), we do not have food programs in schools.
Food banks and free school meals are not the same. Maybe you don't have food banks, but it's what people use here when they need free food. Anyone can use it, even people with jobs. You don't have to prove your poverty.
Nobody starves in Canada, unless they choose to.
So, everything works fine here, glad you educated yourself on a superior system. It's one of many we have in a first world country.
Read my response again, try both links.
Where you live doesnt represent the whole country and vice versa
Many schools run their own programs, PTAs do as well.

Has background on what exists already in addition to forward looking proposals
I agree that food banks are different than programs, again, read response in full
And finally, nice dodge. Should we (society) feed hungry kids yes/no.
I think you need to reread what I said because that was already answered ... Where I live, we dont have hungry kids, it's already taken care of... and it's more than just one meal a day, and it's not only children we take care of.
Your focus on kids alone shows how fucked up your system is.
Dont bother replying I won't ever see it, I've had enough with your argumentative, and disingenuous approach.
My focus is on far more than kids, youre the one saying they dont need any help.
And I'm posting so others dont fall for your BS. Always have been.
