Are You "Middle Class"? Here's How You Can Tell...
Manage episode 420772346 series 2831575
More than 70% of Canadians believe they're "middle class". Are you one of them? New polling shows most of us feel "less wealthy" than our fellow Canadians...but is that accurate? In this episode, we learn how our feelings and other factors contribute to our perception of financial security, and how that's changed in recent years.
5:20 | Margaret Chapman, COO at Narrative Research, takes us into the numbers showing the majority of Canadians feel "less wealthy" than their neighbours...and why. Plus, we look at polling on smartphones in schools (24:00). Do you think they should be banned?
