The pandemic and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have highlighted the interconnectedness and fragility of our global food systems. Because of the war, we are experiencing the largest shock to the global food system since the 2008-09 food price crisis. Food price inflation is having a significant impact on food security around the world. We encourage the Bank to continue to help build resilient food systems through support to the intensification of climate-smart agriculture, improving energy use in food systems, sustainable agri-food value-chains, and overall better food system governance.

Global inflationary pressures continue to rise and are increasing costs of living and squeezing out the middle class. Extreme volatility has plagued commodity markets, increasing the cost of everyday goods including necessities such as food. The IMF must consider how best to assess and respond to growing global risks, many of which—including rising costs of food and fuel—have been exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

In light of recent public comments, I would like to clarify how the CRTC manages costs awards, who is eligible to receive them, and our position on the reprehensible statements on social media by Mr. Laith Marouf. To be clear, the comments by Mr. Marouf are deplorable and such hurtful words, coming from a group applying for costs, would never be allowed to stand on the public record.
