A report by the Salvation Army says the economic downturn has forced more Canadians to turn to food banks and that food is going out as quickly as it comes in. President of Saint John's North End Food Bank, Victor Boudreau, tells CHSJ news use is definitely up but in this case, so are donations.
Boudreau says about 1,000 people use the North End Food bank--most of which are single men. That's up from about 800 people six months ago.
