Overview
Common Wealth Canada is a think tank that advocates for building common wealth for future generations through policies like sovereign wealth funds and land value return. They aim to address Canada’s housing crisis, weak productivity, and growing inequality by ensuring publicly-created wealth benefits all Canadians. Their work frequently involves promoting policies related to Universal Basic Income and Guaranteed Livable Basic Income (GBI).
Key Advocacy Areas
- Land Value Return: Proposing policies to return publicly created land value to the public to lower housing costs, boost productivity, and shift taxes.
- Sovereign Wealth Fund & Dividends: Advocating for the creation of sovereign wealth funds to invest Canada’s natural, public, and technological wealth, paying dividends to all citizens.
