Growing Gap

Trish Hennessy"Canada's income gap between the rich and the rest of us has been growing, unchecked, over the past generation. The team at growinggap.ca works with economists and researchers across Canada to document the problem and put forward solutions for a fairer, more equal society. Repeatedly, our work reminds us of a truly Canadian value: that everyone, no matter what they earn and where they live, should have access to the best this nation offers."
