Young people in the country are set to inherit a mountain of government debt.
A new study by the Fraser Institute suggests that not only Is the debt expected to grow, but it will also be disproportionately paid for by Canadians aged 16 to 35.
In their lifetime, those who find themselves in this demographic are projected pay an additional $19,880 in personal income taxes in order to pay interest on the increase in the federal debt.
That number is only to pay off the interest and would not address the debt itself.
