Budget Season 2024 Toolkit
The BC government made an historic commitment to generational fairness in its 2024 budget. Now we need to push other governments to embrace generational fairness as a guiding principle and commit to investing fairly in all ages. Here are ways you can help:
If you’re in BC, pat your government on the back for their vision, bravery, and leadership!
- Send your Premier and his Cabinet some praise. Find contact information for Premier Eby's office here.
- Share one of these graphics on social channels to celebrate your province's bold commitment to generational fairness.

If you’re outside BC, show off BC's commitment to your provincial leaders. Ask them to follow BC's lead and invest fairly in all generations by following our budget recommendations for your province.
- Send them our 2024 budget recommendations for your province.
- Send them this one-pager featuring B.C.'s budget commitment as a model of what you'd like to see in your province.
Urge our federal government to follow BC's lead and launch a Generational Fairness Task Force.
- Share our federal budget recommendations and B.C.'s budget commitment with your MP, asking them to make generational fairness a guiding principle in Canada's next budget too.
- Tell your MP to support launching a federal Generational Fairness Task Force.
- Ask your friends, colleagues, neighbours, and family to support the Task Force.
Persuade everyone to care about government budgets as much as we do.
Despite our best efforts, there may still be a few Canadians out there who do not understand how many of today's crises are fuelled by decades of governments underinvesting in younger generations. If you know such a person, talk to them about why government budgets are so important. Here are some conversation starters:
- Read and share our six reasons to give a %@$&*! about government budgets
- Watch and share our Bad Budget Bunny video
- Share these past episodes of Hard Truths and stay tuned for our upcoming interview with Sean Speer:
- Share our op-ed in The Hub and watch for Paul Kershaw's upcoming column in The Globe & Mail. Chime in with a comment or letter to the editor.
