No Way Up: Canada’s Social Ladder Is Broken
Is Canada facing more "snakes" than "ladders" on the social mobility board? In this episode, we delve into the 2025 Policy Horizons Canada report that envisions a Canada in 2040 where upward social mobility is a rarity. We explore some of the contributing factors: diminishing returns of post-secondary education, the escalating housing crisis, and the entrenchment of intergenerational wealth. We also examine the costed platforms of both the Liberal and Conservative parties in light of next week's election. Join us as we look ahead to Canada's potential future.
