The UN committee responsible for moni toring the performance of coun- tries that signed the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights—which Canada signed in 1976—has just come out with the most damning criticism yet on poverty in Cana- da. Citing évidence. indicating an appalling “lack of progress” on the growing poverty problem in Canada, the U.N. report detailed the preponderant amount of sin- gle mothers living in poverty, homeless adults, and discrimina- tion against poor people. This is despite Canada’s “enviable situa- tion” in terms of its vast econom- ic resources, the report concluded. What this U.N. report con- firms is that the problem of poverty in the midst of plenty is becoming more conspicuous in Canada. Reminiscent of the Great Depression years of the 1930°s, when large portions of the populace starved and went without the basic necessities of life, the Situation now developing in Canada is all the appalling considering the vast increase in the country’s produc live capacity that has developed over the past 60 years. more Indeed, not only has Canada's large Gross Domestic Product, which is largely based on modern technology, placed us in the envi- able position of being one of the world’s seven leading industrial- ized nations, but the sheer pleni- tude of our resources is almost unparalleled in the world. The problem is that Canadians have not been allowed to enjoy fully the fruits of this productive sys- tem. Because the fate of the coun- try’s national income is inextrica- bly bound to employment, and because the country's real wealth, including its resources, are not considered to belong to the peo- ple, citizens of Canada have had to depend mainly to increase dis placement of man by machine, relentless cuts in governments spending resulting from deficit financing, and mounting taxation in order to be able to purchase only a fraction of the country’s increasing markets to maintain superfluous employment, which in tum fuels trade wars, sabotage of technological innovation to maintain human employment destruction of crops to keep Prices artificially high. rapidly increasing debts by yovernments, corporations and consumers, and inevitably the pathetic increase of * poverty in the midst of plenty If Canadians are to enjoy the fruits of the great productive sys- tem they have inherited from their forefathers, and if they are to be released from the necessity for unne ary and unfulfilling employment in order that they may devote more of their energy to perhaps more creative pursuits, then the only solution is for national income to be more closely related to national pro ductivity. That is, even Canadian citizens should be entitled to a national dividend that will provide them, whether they are employed or not, with the means for a reason- able standard of living, based on the country’s real wealth and pro- duction. This is entirely possible if only the country’s monetary system were reformed. Indeed, when money becomes once again merely a medium of exchange that reflects real production and facilitated distribution, as it was originally intended to do, instead of being an interest-bearing com- modity that emerges as a debt as it has become, only then will prosperity once again be restored to the people of this prosperous land Mike L.
