A NATION ON THE BRINK As the end of the millennium draws near, Canada finds itself trapped in a frightening new era of shrinking incomes, corporate downsizing, and declining government services. The economy booms, but jobless rates remain high. The top 20 percent are getting richer while the bottom 80 percent are getting poorer.
