The Future of Canada's Social Programs

(1993, video, #474, $20.00)

Concern about government deficits and debt has led to calls for spending cuts on social programs. What will this mean for programs like Old Age Security, Unemployment Insurance, Medicare and social assistance - and for the people who use these programs? In June 1993, the CCSD sponsored a forum on the future of Canada's social programs, at which a panel - composed of Lynne Toupin, Tim Reid, Michael McCracken, Nancy Riche, Steve Kerstetter and Monica Townson - discussed and debated this topic from different perspectives. The panel discussion was filmed, and VHS copies are available.
