Canada's 'social' score dragged down by poverty, inequality - chairman - 02-04-2013
OTTAWA -- A new report says Canada's social fabric is being torn by rising income inequality and stagnant child poverty rates.
The Conference Board of Canada report compares Canada with other developed countries on 16 "society indicators" including unemployment, voter turnout, life satisfaction and economic and cultural yardsticks.
The annual social report card says that while Canada gets good grades in areas such as serious crime and tolerance of diversity, its overall "B" ranking placing it 7th out of 17 countries, is largely due to high poverty rates for children and working-age adults.
