The local injustice of bankruptcy
Personal insolvency law offers a vital safety net for individuals in financial difficulty. Nonetheless, disparities arise in access to the benefits of debt relief offered by insolvency law. In a context of geographical inequality and local gaps in access to justice, our original empirical study explores the substantial variation in personal insolvency rates across English local authority districts (LADs) – both in terms of total personal insolven…
Tilting the Playing Field Away from the Discharge of Debts
We examine the increasing prevalence of consumer proposals as a debt relief option in Canada, highlighting the shift in insolvency regulation toward creditor interests and the implications of this for debtors. Canada has two federally regulated debt relief options. One is bankruptcy, which generally offers the discharge of most debts after nine months but requires that large assets, such as homes and cars, be sold for the benefit of creditors. Th…
What Proportion of Tax Returns Could the Canada Revenue Agency Complete
Les personnes à faible revenu qui ne produisent pas de déclaration de revenus au Canada passent à côté de plusieurs avantages importants versés dans le cadre du régime fiscal et peuvent éprouver de la difficulté à vérifier leur admissibilité à d'autres produits et services publics affectés en fonction du revenu. L'Agence du revenu du Canada (ARC) pourrait produire des déclarations simplifiées pour de nombreuses familles à faible revenu, que les d…
Prevalence of High-Cost Loans among the Debts of Canadian Insolvency Filers
Les prêts à cout élevé, y compris les prêts à tempérament à taux élevé ainsi que les petits prêts sur salaire à cout élevé, sont courants au Canada et, comme nous le montrons, le sont encore plus aujourd’hui qu’ils ne l’étaient autrefois. Les sociétés prêteuses sont des entreprises privées et ne sont pas tenues de rendre compte du volume de leurs prêts ni des caractéristiques de leurs emprunteur·ses. Cependant, les données associées aux déclarati…
Short-Term Effects of the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement on Municipal Procurement in Canada
The Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) between Canada and the European Union, which entered into force in 2017, is the first international trade agreement that grants access to government procurement markets in Canadian municipalities. In the short term, will the agreement lead to major changes in the policies and procedures of Canadian local government procurement authorities or to changes in the proportion of foreign-controlled c…
Who Doesn’t File a Tax Return? A Portrait of Non-Filers
The Canada Revenue Agency administers dozens of cash transfer programs that require an annual personal income tax return to establish eligibility. Approximately 10–12 percent of Canadians, however, do not file a return; as a result, they will not receive the benefits for which they are otherwise eligible. In this article, we provide the first estimates of the number and characteristics of non-filers. We also estimate that the value of cash benefi…

The Predicament of Language and Culture
A growing literature in linguistic anthropology critically examines the rhetoric of endangered language advocacy. A number of themes remain underexplored, however, including the invocation of "culture" to justify language preservation, the interests of communities without fluent heritage language speakers, and anthropology's contribution to potentially problematic advocacy tropes. Discourses like "language is the core of culture" and "when a lang…
Does Canada need trade adjustment assistance
Trade adjustment assistance (TAA) is government aid to those affected by trade agreements. We review the history of TAA in Canada and ask whether Canada needs to reintroduce it in response to the recent intensification of trade negotiations. In light of the compensation offered by the federal government in connection with the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), we examine how TAA fits in with the evolution of …
The cultures of Native North American language documentation and revitalization
The reviewed books comprise an emerging ethnographic literature on endangered language documentation and revitalization in Native North America. Language loss and preservation are pressing concerns for tribal communities, galvanizing activists and researchers to develop classroom curricula and literacy traditions in hopes of producing new speakers. While the reviewed books show that this goal often goes unrealized, we nevertheless read them as gr…
Credit Counselling in Canada
When debt becomes unmanageable, two options for a consumer debtor in Canada are: (1) enlisting the services of a bankruptcy trustee, and (2) becoming a client of a not-for-profit credit counselling agency. Each of these options is regulated differently and has public and private dimensions. At first glance, these two options might seem to illustrate the potential of multiple legal orders to better serve the public. In this paper, however, we argu…
Collaborative Methods
Collaborative research partnerships between academic anthropologists and host or descendant communities are becoming more popular in anthropology. The reviewed books demonstrate there are different understandings of what collaboration means for professional identities and expertise across subfields. Therefore, such partnerships are unlikely to promote cross-subfield integration. Nevertheless, while their collaborative styles diverge, the reviewed…
The Employment Impacts of Active Labour Market Policy
Dans cet article, nous évaluons l’impact d’une composante importante du Projet d’autosuffisance (PAS), une vaste politique canadienne d’intervention sur le marché du travail. Nous nous concentrons donc sur le PAS-plus, qui offre à d’ex-prestataires de l’aide sociale des services reliés à l’emploi et un intéressant supplément de revenu. Nous avons considéré deux façons d’expliquer les effets positifs supplémentaires du PAS-plus sur le taux d’emplo…

Workers' compensation in Canada
In this article, the authors argue that workers' compensation policies in Canada should be made more accountable to elected governments. The changing nature of occupational risks has created a range of workplace injuries against which current workers' compensation programs do not adequately insure. The existence of workers' compensation alongside the other components of the social‐safety net may have created significant numbers of individuals who…
The Relative Earnings of Vietnam and Korean-Era Veterans
Using Current Population Survey data for 1967 and 1979, this paper compares the earnings of Vietnam veterans to those of Korean veterans (in both cases, relative to nonveterans) at similar points in their work lives—twelve to sixteen years after their discharge. In both 1967 and 1979, the unadjusted average annual earnings of veterans and nonveterans were similar. But an analysis that controls for such factors as education, age, race, and marital…
