A recent spring food drive in Barrie, Ont. fell $100,000 short on their financial goal. It's part of a growing trend across Canada.

Apparently it’s a “tip” that’s been passed around to international students.

That doesn't surprise me. I've seen people suggesting to others, who are NOT in need, to visit their local soup kitchen for free/low-cost meals. I don't know how they can sleep at night with a clear conscience, but that's disturbing.
