Dr. Paul Kershaw brings academic credibility, political influence, media reach, and years of firsthand engagement with politicians, thought-leaders, boomers, and younger Canadians alike. A generational bridge-builder, he writes with empathy, analytical rigor, and moral clarity.

Kershaw is an award-winning policy professor at the University of British Columbia's School of Population and Public Health, and one of Canada's leading voices on generational equity. Over more than two decades, he has researched and taught the full range of policy issues from housing and income security to health care, public finance, and climate policy.

As founder of Generation Squeeze, a "Think and Change Tank," he has a proven record of translating evidence-based ideas into federal and provincial policy decisions that have improved the lives of millions of Canadians. Generation Squeeze is a charitable Think and Change tank promoting wellbeing for all generations, backed by 70,000+ Canadians.

Generation Squeeze's work has contributed to more than $30 billion in federal child-care investments under the $10-a-day brand, the first Empty Homes Tax in North America, and a federal budget framed around "Fairness for Every Generation." Kershaw is a bi-weekly columnist for The Globe and Mail, hosts the Hard Truths podcast, and has delivered 130+ briefings to federal and provincial officials.
