Dear Friends and Members,
 
Happy New Year!
 
The Centre started off the new year with the release of Hugh Mackenzie’s latest report on executive compensation. The total average compensation for Canada’s 100 highest paid CEOs was $7,352,895 in 2008—a stark contrast from the total average Canadian income of $42,305. They pocketed what takes Canadians earning an average income an entire year to make by 1:01 pm January 4—the first working day of the year.

Also, as we get closer to the 2010 Winter Olympics, many people have questions about how the games will affect not only British Columbia, but Canada as a whole. The CCPA has been publishing studies and commentary about the 2010 Olympics since 2003. We’ve compiled a list of our Olympics-related publications to help Canadians learn more about the economic and social impact of the upcoming Winter Games.
 
All the best,
 
Bruce Campbell, Executive Director
