DOES CANADA WORK FOR ALL GENERATIONS?

Renowned UBC Professor Dr. Paul Kershaw doesn’t think so and he’s coming to our community to tell us what we can do about it.

Consider this:

Canadians aged 25-45 are squeezed for time at home, because it takes two adults to bring home what was earned by one a generation ago. 

The generation raising kids today has less time, flat-lined household incomes & skyrocketing housing costs compared with the 1970s.

BC has the highest child poverty rate in Canada...and has for 7 years running?   

Can we chage the future for the younger generation in BC - absolutely!  

The first step in this social change is understanding that there is a problem.  

Join  in on the conversation.

Dr. Paul Kershaw is one of Canada’s leading thinkers about family policy. A two-time Canadian Political Science Association national prize winner and “armed with a laptop and raft of statistics,” Kershaw is described by The Province as a “one-man road show trying to change Canada one talk at a time.” Kershaw writes a weekly column in The Vancouver Sun, and is the Scholar of Social Care at UBC.
