About

We are Generation Screwed

Well, first off, Generation Screwed is not aligned with any political party; it does not have a partisan axe to grind.

Who we are

We are a project initiated by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation in 2013 to inform and mobilize young Canadians who want to save their economic future.

From campus clubs to Parliament Hill, we bring young Canadians together to push back against runaway government debt.

Giving Canadians a loud voice

Young Canadians see this country heading for a fiscal cliff and want to set off alarm bells. Of course, raising awareness about Canada’s impending debt crisis is not enough.

That is why Generation Screwed also helps organize young Canadians so they can take political action. That means holding events, visiting universities and running online campaigns.

It means having a strong voice that can’t be ignored. It means making a difference. The more young people who support us, the more effective our voice will be.

Become part of our campaign.
