We’re excited to launch the newest addition to CUPE’s publication family, Economy at work.

Written by CUPE’s Senior Economist, Toby Sanger, Economy at work breaks down economic issues that affect average Canadians. Wages, inflation, the cost of housing and education, investment in public services—these are the economic issues that matter to Canadian workers. You’ll find the latest on these issues and more in Economy at work.

In this issue:

  • Housing bust could plunge Canada into recession
  • Spotlight on jobs: Seniors at your service
  • Lower interest rates could save governments big bucks


Don’t forget to check out our special Economy at work online feature, Economic Fundamentals: How do we measure economic growth and price changes?
