Food Freedom Day
8 February, 2020
The Canadian Federation of Agriculture (CFA) has calculated that on February 8, 2020 a Canadian household of average income will have earned enough income to pay for their grocery bill for the entire year.
Food Freedom Day is calculated by taking Canadians’ total expenditure on food and beverages and dividing it by the total Canadian household disposable income to create a percentage. CFA then determines what the percentage of the year is, by day.
