The Decline of Social Mobility in Canada | Benjamin Seethaler | TEDxKelowna Youth

Benjamin examines the decline of social mobility in Canada, shedding light on economic and systemic barriers that prevent fairness and opportunity. With a passion for economics, he challenges us to rethink how we create a more equitable future. I am a passionate student at Kelowna Secondary School who loves to try new things and meet new people. Having grown up in Kelowna, I have thoroughly enjoyed seeing the city grow and evolve around me. When I'm not busy studying, I spend my time playing badminton, participating on the school debate team, and seeing friends. After I finish high school, I look forward to studying economics and working towards solutions that can have a positive impact on people's lives. The principles of fairness and equity are guiding philosophies in much of what I do and I hope that my Ted Talk can inspire action that brings us closer to these ideals. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
