Child hunger and homelessness -- once considered either sorrowful reflections of an economically impoverished society or shameful reflections of a morally impoverished state -- have become commonplace. The increasing scope of child poverty in Canada has been high on the national agenda since at least 1989 when Ed Broadbent, leader of the New Democratic Party, proposed a resolution in the House of Commons to eliminate child poverty by 2000. The resolution passed unanimously and sparked the formation of Campaign 2000, a broad national co-alition of non-governmental agencies committed to monitoring the governments progress toward that goal. More than a decade later, the September 2001 issue of Macleans remarked: "Here we are in 2001...and child poverty in Canada is worse, not better." This book represents an effort to understand the changes in social policy that normalise the existence of child poverty in a rich society like Canada.
