Students of the School of Community and Public Affairs at Concordia University will be hosting a panel discussion on the exciting topic of Basic Income. Can this be a potential solution for Canada throughout the pandemic and could it become a way forward for the future?

We will be exploring the role of government in the economy and in social welfare, and how our experience throughout the pandemic may inform future policy in this area.

Please join us for this wonderful discussion!
