Slow Food Canada releases film by Edmonton International Film Festival award winner Kevin Kossowan. The new short documentary “Slow Food in/au Canada” was screened across the nation on Terra Madre Day, December 10th, 2014.

The movie can be watched online here:

The film highlights Slow Food in Canada activities from coast to coast, expressing the diversity of the landscape and foodscape of Canada. The central themes of respect for the land, food sovereignty and Slow Food’s central tenents of Good, Clean, Fair food for all are captured in this vivid and inspiring 15 minute HD film.

“The opportunity to see different examples of Canadian volunteers and activists at work — Canadians who are so passionate and dedicated to, as Carlo Petrini says, linking the pleasure of good food with a commitment to their community and the environment — is documented here, like never before, for all us to embrace and applaud with great pride”, says Voula Halliday, Co-Chair of Slow Food Canada.

Terra Madre Day
Since 2009, each year on December 10 – Slow Food’s anniversary – food communities and Slow Food convivia around the world celebrate Terra Madre Day, an international campaign to promote the diversity of food traditions and production.
