The Missing Middle with Mike Moffatt and Cara Stern
Is the System Rigged Against Millennials and Gen Z?
A recent Leger poll examined how young Canadians feel about their economic situation, and whether they're getting enough support from the government.
Mike Moffatt and Cara Stern discuss the results, which found that millennials and Gen Z feel they are worse off than their parents. They also touch on the perception that politicians prioritize the interests of older generations over younger ones. The conversation highlights the need for more government support and better allocation of resources to address the struggles faced by millennials. Cara and Mike express concerns about the future and the impact of high taxes and debt on younger generations.
The conversation explores the challenges faced by millennials in Canada, focusing on topics such as housing affordability, education, career prospects, and government spending.
