Food Day Canada honours the work of farmers, fishers, chefs, researchers and home cooks across the food system. 

The Arrell Food Institute at the University of Guelph, in partnership with Canada Beef and Food Day Canada, have released a new documentary A Nation’s Table to celebrate the legacy of Anita Stewart, the late U of G food laureate who founded the day 21 years ago. 

A Nation’s Table explores Stewart’s life of food activism and her efforts to uncover untold stories of Canadian cuisine.
