To what extent should Canadians support social programs and taxation? Chapter 8: Creating A Social Safety Net

Think about the last time you visited the doctor. Who paid for the visit? If you required X-rays, who paid for those? In a way, social programs like health care are free — but not really. You might not realize it, but the free, public health care government provides for people in Canada comes from taxes that citizens pay to government. It also comes from decisions the government makes on how to use taxes to benefit everybody. These decisions affect quality of life for you and others. In this chapter, you will explore the underlying values of economic policies related to social programs in Canada and the U.S. As you work through the chapter, consider how political and economic decision making can affect people’s quality of life. Also consider the views and perspectives you encounter. Think about what you believe people in Canada should most value as a society, and how decisions about social programs and taxation can reflect these values.

X-rays can cost hundreds of dollars, and some medical procedures, such as surgery or cancer treatment, can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Think critically: should individuals or society pay for medical services? How might a decision on this issue affect your quality of life?
