Canada trials a basic income for unemployed workers
Canada is testing a basic income policy for unemployed workers to see it’s impact over the low income groups. According to this new policy, more than 4,000 citizens of the Canadian province of Ontario will receive a monthly allowance from the government and the government will monitor the affect of the allowance over the health and well being of the people. The new allowance will allow the people to be more productive and have a positive attitude towards the society. Canada is following the footsteps of a number of other countries who have started the same policy to see it’s impact over the productivity of the region. Residents of a small province are provided with a monthly allowance regardless of their state of employment to see how it affects their productivity and well being. Although it’s too early to access the results of this scheme, residents of Ontario are already very happy and believe that this allowance will make a huge difference to their lifestyle. Tim Butto...
