Expanding Food Justice: Gender, Race and Hunger in Toronto Expanding Food Justice: Gender, Race and Hunger in Toronto by Stacey Murie A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Department of Geography & Planning University of Toronto © Copyright by Stacey Murie, 2017 Expanding Food Justice: Gender, Race and Hunger in Toronto Stacey Murie Master of Arts Graduate Department of Geography & Planning University of Toronto 2017 Abstract Hunger is a significant issue in Toronto, particularly among racialized individuals and female lone-parent households. Canadian critical food scholarship generally attributes hunger among these marginalized groups to financial insecurity, disregarding the ways gender and race intersect with poverty. To challenge this pattern, I argue that a food justice framework can elucidate how intersecting systems of oppression impact the ability of marginalized communities to access food. Drawing from participant observation at The Stop, a leading food justice organization in Toronto, and interviews with staff members from various food security organizations, this project examines the utility of a food justice framework in understanding how gender and racial inequality shape the experiences of The Stop’s participants and analyzes how The Stop works to dismantle gender and racial injustices through food activism, and what barriers to this work exist. Doing so highlights the possibilities for re-framing how hunger is understood and addressed in Toronto. ii Acknowledgments There are a few individuals I would like to thank for their contributions to my research project. Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor, Sarah Wakefield. You have provided me with great guidance, feedback, and encouragement. I would also like to thank the members of my committee, Dr. Tracey Galloway and Dr. Nicole Laliberte, for their thoughtful comments. Furthermore, my project would not have been possible without the support of The Stop Community Food Centre’s leadership team, The Stop’s participants, and all interview informants. I also appreciate the patience, kindness, and support of my family members Joan Ramsay, Alex Murie, and Andy Murie. Lastly, I would like to give special thanks to Cory Crabtree for his careful editing and his continual motivation. iii Table of Contents Acknowledgments .......................................................................................................................... iii Table of Contents ........................................................................................................................... iv List of Figures ............................................................................................................................... vii List of Appendices ....................................................................................................................... viii Chapter 1 ..........................................................................................................................................1 1 Introduction .................................................................................................................................1 Chapter 2 ..........................................................................................................................................6 2 Literature Review ........................................................................................................................6 2.1 Introduction ..........................................................................................................................6 2.2 Responses to Hunger in Toronto ..........................................................................................7 2.3 Food Justice .......................................................................................................................12 2.4 Intersectionality ..................................................................................................................16 2.5 Food Justice in Canada?

Although Toronto is ranked as one of the top four cities of opportunity in the world (PWC, 2016), hunger is a severe municipal issue. In 2014, 12.6% of Torontonians experienced some level of food insecurity, which is understood as the inability to access the amount of food needed to maintain good health (Tarasuk, Mitchell, & Dachner, 2016). Mounting poverty rates in the city have caused increasing rates of hunger (Saul & Curtis, 2013; Davis & Tarasuk, 1994; Daily Bread Food Bank, 2016, etc). Between the years 1981 and 2005, income inequality increased 31% in Toronto, even though the gap only grew 14% nationally during this time period (United Way, 2015). Accordingly, hunger is not the result of a lack of food in Toronto, but rather the high costs of housing, food, and other basic needs, as well

  • MAKING the SCENE: Yorkville and Hip Toronto, 1960-1970 by Stuart
    MAKING THE SCENE: Yorkville and Hip Toronto, 1960-1970 by Stuart Robert Henderson A thesis submitted to the Department of History in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada October, 2007 Copyright © Stuart Robert Henderson, 2007 Abstract For a short period during the 1960s Toronto’s Yorkville district was found at the centre of Canada’s youthful bohemian scene. Students, artists, hippies, greasers, bikers, and “weekenders” congregated in and around the district, enjoying the live music and theatre in its many coffee houses, its low-rent housing in overcrowded Victorian walk- ups, and its perceived saturation with anti-establishmentarian energy. For a period of roughly ten years, Yorkville served as a crossroads for Torontonian (and even English Canadian) youth, as a venue for experimentation with alternative lifestyles and beliefs, and an apparent refuge from the dominant culture and the stifling expectations it had placed upon them. Indeed, by 1964 every young Torontonian (and many young Canadians) likely knew that social rebellion and Yorkville went together as fingers interlaced. Making the Scene unpacks the complicated history of this fraught community, examining the various meanings represented by this alternative scene in an anxious 1960s. Throughout, this dissertation emphasizes the relationship between power, authenticity and identity on the figurative stage for identity performance that was Yorkville. ii Acknowledgements Making the Scene is successful by large measure as a result of the collaborative efforts of my supervisors Karen Dubinsky and Ian McKay, whose respective guidance and collective wisdom has saved me from myself on more than one occasion.
