I've said this before but it bears repeating (from a report just released by the Canadian Policy Research Networks): "The central finding is that 'Generation Y' - those born after 1979 - is far from apathetical and apolitical. However, while very much tuned into small "p" political life, young Canadians are increasingly disenchanted with our formal political institutions and politics as currently practiced." Note how well their recommendation resonates with our own: "this is not about simply transferring knowledge from one generation to another - rather, it is about embracing youth as co-creators and partners in renewing civil and democratic life in Canada."
