I'm not laughing, Harry. I've just accessed a
report by the Canadian Council on Social Development that shows that poverty in
urban areas, including poverty among the working poor, increased in Canada
between 1990 and 1995. It has probably continued to increase since
then. I'm not sure of what can be done about it, but I would agree with
Arthur that foodbanks are not the answer. Neither is kicking the poor
harder, as politicians seem increasingly to want to do.
