“I also want to recognize the work and contribution that Paul [Kershaw] and the Generation Squeeze team have done… You can sometimes wonder — is your work… actually making a difference? And I think you wonder that because it doesn't always. But Generation Squeeze, in your work, really has put this issue on the national agenda, and you created kind of a body of thinking that was very helpful for us to draw on.”

“There's something [that's] fundamentally shifted in our economy that young people don't have the kinds of opportunities they had before. And that's what we're trying to get at [in the Budget]. And that's where you, and folks like you, have been so incredibly helpful in our thinking.”

“Thank you for all that you do with Gen Squeeze. To be totally honest, for a long time I didn’t quite have the words or facts to support how I was feeling -- i.e. anger, frustration or disappointment. All stemming from this feeling that I could/should have done more to get into the housing market. Gen Squeeze provides the evidence that it was not my doing, nor my lack of hard work, that has blocked me out of the housing market.”

Gen Squeeze is “existential for the health of Canadian politics and Canadian democracy.”

“Generation Squeeze has a proven track record of influencing public policy at all levels of government. On the national and provincial stage Generation Squeeze has influence far beyond social advocacy groups of comparable size or even beyond some of the largest social policy groups in the country. This includes contributing policy language for government Budget documents, presenting at Cabinet policy retreats, and one-on-one dialogue with senior Cabinet Ministers and Premiers. Beyond this role in educating elected decision makers, Generation Squeeze works with future leaders involved in policy. This includes hosting young Parliament Hill staffers at a policy breakfast on generational fairness and sharing insights with political assistants across a wide variety of cabinet offices. Perhaps Generation Squeeze’s greatest contribution, comes from its oversized role in shaping public opinion in the media and on social media. Dr. Kershaw not only delivers on air and in print but has significant influence on educating journalists behind the scenes.”

“Gen Squeeze is my go-to source for provincial and federal budget analyses. Their team has a knack for translating huge amounts of data and research into crisp takeaways and helpful infographics. For folks who lack the time (or patience!) to sift through extensive budget documents on their own, Gen Squeeze can be trusted to do the heavy lifting and weigh in on how well we are — or aren’t — tackling some of the most pressing issues facing our country.”
