Economics of rising Canadian expectations alarms experts
Dr. Clay Gilson, University of Manitoba economist, told the ACWW rural women's seminar in Winnipeg that Canada's growing public demand for services and opportunities strains government finances. He cited inflation, energy scarcity, a constitutional crisis, Quebec independence, and militant unions as key pressures. He urged broader study by ACWW and allied groups to curb appetite for new programs ahead of Canada's 1983 ACWW convention.
