SUMMARY:2025 CCFI Public Trust Summit | Fear\, Facts\, and Food: The Fight for Trust
DESCRIPTION:Location: The Westin Toronto Airport Hotel \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis year’s Public Trust Summit will explore one of the most urgent challenges facing Canada’s food system: the growing influence of misinformation on public trust. Recent research reveals that 91% of Canadians are concerned about food misinformation\, yet the majority rarely verify the information they consume. This leaves the public vulnerable to misleading narratives—whether spread by social media influencers\, self-proclaimed experts\, or organized disinformation campaigns aimed at eroding trust in food and farming. \n\n\n\nWith the theme Fear\, Facts\, and Food: The Fight for Trust\, the 2025 Summit will explore the growing phenomenon of “fear-fluencing”—the spread of fear through misinformation and distortion—and unveil new strategies to engage consumers\, strengthen trust\, and safeguard the integrity of our food system. \n\n\n\n\nBook Your Room\n\n\n\nRegister
