Today, The Canadian Council of Churches/Le Conseil canadien des Églises General Secretary Peter Noteboom joined faith leaders from across Canada in Ottawa to mark International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. The group met with the federal Minister for Families, Children and Social Development Jean-Yves Duclos and other Members of Parliament to talk about ways to #EndPoverty in Canada. Thanks to Peter and all the church leaders who took part in today's #ChewOnThis event to bring awareness of the need for a strong, effective national strategy to address poverty in our country.
