25 per cent of children are living in New Brunswick households that are having a difficult time putting the food they need on the table.
That claim being made in a new report published by researchers at the University of Toronto.
The researchers have concluded nearly one in eight Canadian households experienced food insecurity in 2011 and with the exception of Newfoundland and Labrador, food insecurity has persisted or even gotten worse in every province and territory since 2005.
