Income Inequality

Income Inequality: Its a political gambit, of course, and its aimed at Liberal Leader Justin Trudeaus recent talk about income inequality . Last week, Kenney accused Trudeau of making things up when the Liberal leader asserted that Canadas middle class is stuck in neutral, according to Huffington Post. The researchers describe the income gains at the top of the ladder as "dramatic." Employment Minister Jason Kenney has been boasting about data showing that Canadians net worth boomed in recent years, arguing, in essence, that Canada isnt facing the sorts of income inequality problems that others are facing. But is Trudeau really making things up? Not according to a new study of incomes from the University of British Columbia , which found that nearly all the gains since the 1980s have gone to the top 10 per cent of earners and much of that went to the very top 0.01 per cent of earners.
