Canadian Politicians and Jamie Oliver

Jamie Oliver: The popular chef, television star and best-selling author says it is time for Canadian politicians to do something about their country number one killer: diet-related disease, according to Metro News. When it has a dramatic cost to public health, which it does in Canada you really need to do something much more long term, much more strategic and Jamie Oliver, Britain celebrity chef, has thrown down the gauntlet or maybe it an oven mitt to Canadian politicians to join his international campaign for mandatory diet education in rich countries. The biggest killer in your country is diet-related disease. It not guns, it not armed robbery, Oliver said in an exclusive interview from Sydney, Australia, where he launched a global campaign this week urging G20 countries to make food education mandatory in schools.
