Gould promises to open ‘path’ to a basic personal income
- Karina Gould, a candidate for the Federal Liberal leadership, promises to widen eligibility for Canada's Employment Insurance and introduce a universal basic income program if elected Prime Minister.
- Gould stated that the current Employment Insurance system takes too long to process payments, leaving some workers without support due to strict eligibility requirements.
- Gould promised to modernize the Employment Insurance program within a year if chosen as leader, addressing vulnerabilities for seasonal and contract workers.
- Evidence from various experiments supports the idea that universal basic income could improve well-being without significantly reducing labor force participation.
