Poverty

What role should the wealthy nations of the world, like Canada and the United States, play in easing the suffering of the world's poorest people? What responsibility do the wealthiest people have in tackling global poverty?

It is important for the wealthier nations such as Canada and the United States to support the suffering of the world's poorest by providing education, information, and in some cases possibly even technology to improve the quantity and type of food grown. Technology can be used to possibly implement irrigation and developing better seats to increase crop yields. I feel that we must do more than just provide money and food because that is not inedibly solving the problem.
