Equal as Citizens
Enshrined in our constitution, Canadians expect equal treatment from their government. Canada's provinces have unequal means to pay for those responsibilities, as the balance of wealth shifts over time. Richard Starr traces the history of equalization & shows how it has been undermined & proposes how it can be reframed for the twenty-first century.
