Weaponizing the Food Guide July 28, 2019,
If elected as our next prime minister, Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer vows to review the Canada Food Guide, which was introduced in January.
The idea itself is desirable. Even though the new food guide took 12 years to come to fruition, the food guide's review should be a continuous process, aiming for a new version every five years or so.
Scheer's intent is clearly motivated by his will to instrumentalize the food guide and politicize healthy eating, and that is never a good thing.
