Who We Are

Plant-Based Canada, co-founded by Dr. Zahra Kassam and Michelle Fedele RD in 2019, is a non-profit organization dedicated to the well-being of humans, the environment and all its life forms.

Poor nutrition plays a significant role in our current epidemic of chronic diseases, reducing the quality and quantity of our lives, and affecting our families and our communities. Our planetary health is similarly at a crisis point, with our current food systems contributing to the destruction of our environment and loss of its biodiversity.

Plant-Based Canada stands for justice in all its forms – food, environment, animal, social, gender, poverty, and race.

The need to change our current paradigm is imperative.
