      ab: The article "Social Welfare Policy in Canada" discusses the evolution of social policy in Canada over the past 50 years, particularly focusing on income redistribution policy. The introduction of neoliberalism in the economy and government, starting with Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's tenure, led to tax cuts, increased deficits, and program cuts. Various books reviewed in the article cover different perspectives on income security in Canada during the neoliberal era, addressing federalism, privatization, social rights, inequality, and welfare reform. The text also highlights the impact of these policy changes on recipients, public servants, political parties, and the public, emphasizing the shift towards a polarized political landscape in Canada.
