A new UNICEF report looks at 24 OECD countries and rates Canada poorly on children's material well-being, which includes housing and family income. We're #17 out of 24 countries. The report says “Canada should address income inequality by promoting fairly paid and highly skilled employment and through sufficient and fairly distributed benefits and taxation.” Read the Toronto Star story about the report here or download the report here.
The CCPA Monitor is the only place I know that one can go to for accurate and honest reporting on the state of the world. I would hate like hell to ever be without The CCPA Monitor; it would be like losing my sight and my hearing. I heartily recommend it to anybody who gives a damn about the condition of the world.
