Well-being and Opportunity in Canada
Canadians are experiencing major changes in individual well-being and opportunity. A changing job market and growing differences in income combined with dramatic increases in university, tuition, decreases in benefits from income support programs and greater reliance on for-profit health care services have altered Canadians' ability to secure their futures. This course examines the rise and decline of the welfare state: how and why these changes in well-being and opportunity are taking place.
