What Is Basic Income?
A basic income guarantee could completely change the way you make decisions and live your life.
HOW CAN I HELP?
Basic income movements are happening on local, provincial/territorial, national and international levels.
As the need for basic income grows, we are often asked how Canada could best design and pay for it. To answer that, we asked a team to model some fair, effective and feasible options. Our report, Basic Income: Some Policy Options for Canada does just that.
