Are Canadians fair or is that just a story we tell ourselves? Can we reason our way to lessened inequality or are violent cataclysms the only levelling power, as Thomas Piketty and Walter Schiedel argue? How do we maintain a sense and an approximation of fairness in our globalizing and polarizing world? Certainly there can be no fairness without tax fairness: tax policy is where we negotiate the relationship between wealth and poverty. But how do public ideas of fairness converge or collide with the cacophony of advice emanating from economists, lawyers, journalists, elders, activists, and humanists? These are not technical questions but political and historical ones, and amidst a 鈥渘ew gilded era鈥� they have a new urgency. At the MISC conference for 2018, we bring together an exceptionally diverse group to debate how Canadians formulate core principles of fairness, and how far we actually live up to those norms.

Participants and speakers include:

Tax havens:
Alain Deneault, Directeur de programme au Coll猫ge international de philosophie

鈥淐anadian bankers, lawyers and officials didn't only cooperate with tax havens, in the sixties, they created them. A former director of the central bank of Canada, a former minister of Finance, a lawyer near a major political party or the Canadian government itself were instrumental in shaping the laws that would make Jamaica, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands or the Barbados the free zones and tax havens that we know today.鈥�

Tax Exemptions:
Brigitte Alepin, Professor, 脡cole des Science de la Gestion, UQAM

鈥淭he private charitable foundation tax scheme has to be revised, since in its actual state, it represents a threat to democracy and public finances.鈥� (may be interviewed in French)
