Canda's #Budget2024 pledged billions of dollars in an economic plan that hopes to tackle the country's housing crisis. But the question remains: will the support will be enough? We talked to @globalnews youtube.com/watch?v=Wqs0G1…
Around the world #intergenerationalfairness is being embedded in policymaking. We have a duty to protect the interests of younger and future generations who have not had a say in decisions made today.

Thank you @GenSqueeze and Dr. Paul Kershaw for illuminating in a positive way how we can effectively and responsibly navigate both the cost of living and environmental stewardship. theglobeandmail.com/investing/pers…
For the first time, Ottawa is acknowledging that there are inequities between generations and that they create tensions in our public policies which play out differently for younger and older Canadians. Join us to talk about it on our Substack channel: gensqueeze.substack.com/p/ottawas-fair…
It’s time to retire subsidies to rich seniors -Editorial Board @globeandmail "No longer running up the debt burden for future generations will have to start with reforming OAS... Any changes need not, and should not, affect the poorest seniors." theglobeandmail.com/opinion/editor…
#IntergenerationalFairness is a global phenomenon. Here is the view from France. This is a well written piece that describes the fiscal challenges of budgets that continue to prioritize spending on older, more wealthy citizens, at the expense of younger generations.

How do we pay for the ballooning retirement costs of baby boomers, without skimping on the needs of younger people and burdening future generations with massive public debts? We talked with leading conservative voice Sean Speer. gensqueeze.substack.com/p/taxes-defici…
"The emphasis on increasing housing supply obscures an issue politicians are less likely to address. Namely, that we have become addicted to ever-rising home prices, largely because we've been conditioned to see our homes as financial assets." cbc.ca/news/business/…

Are the federal housing promises in #Budget2024 enough? We talked to @globalnews
Quick recap of our take on this week's historic federal budget. The age gap in new spending reminds us that the freighter of government changes course slowly, but it's turning in a much better direction. Check out our full budget analysis: bit.ly/3JshzF9
Ottawa needs to address a massive revenue shortfall but it will be nearly impossible if too many of us believe the path to balanced budgets is as easy as eliminating spending on things we love to hate. Here’s why: gensqueeze.ca/globe_mail_bal…

@GenSqueeze I'm about to go into a conference, but: land use and zoning (etc) reform in cities and communities that are most economically productive, have the biggest agglom effects, and have the quality of life amenities desired by young people; focus on rent as well as home prices.
"Millennials and Gen Z are watching the middle-class dream become less and less achievable. They worry that they won’t ever be able to afford the kinds of homes they grew up in"

It’s the dirty little secret of housing policy - that the root of rapidly rising house prices is govts encouraging treating homeownership as an investment. And no government is willing to address it.
"The emphasis on increasing housing supply obscures an issue politicians are less likely to address. Namely, that we have become addicted to ever-rising home prices, largely because we've been conditioned to see our homes as financial assets." cbc.ca/news/business/…
@scottcbell @GenSqueeze I think you’re both kind of right. Higher taxes on property help weed out inefficient use, but it needs to be paired with lower taxes in productivity-driven areas like income and capital gains. The Fed’s builder stimulus is also inflationary to costs, making building harder.
The world would be better off if people recognized the difference between necessary and sufficient conditions YIMBYs are saying supply-side reforms are necessary, and anti-YIMBYs think we're saying they're sufficient Non-market intervention compliments supply-side reforms!
"The emphasis on increasing housing supply obscures an issue politicians are less likely to address. Namely, that we have become addicted to ever-rising home prices, largely because we've been conditioned to see our homes as financial assets." cbc.ca/news/business/…
@GenSqueeze @globalnews True enough, but will they execute? History shows otherwise. The root of the problem is expectations. What are they really building? And will people accept it.
@GenSqueeze @globeandmail Interesting, it is strange how intergenerational inequality is used as a political football instead of a structural problem needing remedy
Hello UK 👇 and great work by our good friends @GenSqueeze working alongside @inter_gen for more than a decade on #intergenerationalfairness
And the biggest concern about the deficit comes from folks who bought a two million dollar cottage in Muskoka in 1984 for $35,000 and are upset they’ll have to pay more tax on it.
