At Ryerson University, where tuition is between $7,000 and $11,000, a referendum is underway asking for a funding increase for the Good Food Centre. "We run out of food a lot," Good Food Centre coordinator Claire Davis said in an interview. Kim Vaz, 30, says grocery stores in downtown Toronto are expensive and many Ryerson students are turning to the Good Food Centre food bank.

The irony in asking students who can't afford food to pay more tuition in order to fund the food bank isn't lost on staff.
