The report was presented to St. John's city council's Committee of the Whole on Wednesday. "Nobody indicated they were able to walk or bike to buy food," Crocker said. She said the the survey puts a "food lens" on some of the things the City of St. John's is doing, which can help move sustainable public policy forward.
