Manage episode 341901468 series 3336966
In this episode of Gen Squeeze's Hard Truths podcast Paul Kershaw chats with Bill Robson, President and CEO of the CD Howe Institute. They talk about intergenerational unfairness embedded in Canadian federal and provincial budgets. The existing fiscal reality is that older generations disproportionately benefit from government spending while younger future generations are left holding the bill. Paul and Bill talk about how we got into this situation and how we might find a way out.
As highlighted in this podcast episode, Gen Squeeze just launched a video contest intended to promote generational fairness among elected officials. Find out more about the contest (including details about the cash prizes!) here: https://www.gensqueeze.ca/contest
