Changing the Conversation about Poverty
The BC Poverty Reduction Coalition has been working hard to get our provincial government to develop and implement a poverty reduction strategy as many other provinces and territories have.
Among the many arguments that are made to reduce poverty (the moral obligation of a wealthy society for example) there is a compelling economic argument against poverty that should have decision-makers sitting up and taking notice.
The economic argument against homelessness has been made successfully in many jurisdictions and is well-documented in the article Million Dollar Murray by award-winning author Malcolm Gladwell. Take a look at the video featuring Iglika Ivanova, Public Interest Researcher at the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives as she explains the economic argument against poverty.
