How Does the ‘Social Safety Net’ Work in Canada (View from the North)
Does it Work the Same or Better than the One in the US. The host for this show is Jay Fidell. The guest is Ken Rogers.
Dr. Ken Rogers, retired Canadian businessman, helps us understand the bundle of benefits that are in the Canadian Social Safety Net. We compare them with the benefits that are available in the US, and the systems by which they are funded and implemented in the US. That would include benefits like food stamps, school lunches, social security, medicare, unemployment insurance, welfare payments, and others. We also discuss the political issues that arises with respect to the creation, continuance and funding of these benefits.
