- 1/5 Is there a gender wealth gap in Canada? In my latest paper with Mamadou Diallo and @dianapenaruiz.bsky.social, we provide some answers. We also compare gender wealth gaps across provinces and over time to assess whether Québec’s adoption of a family policy reduced these gaps. rdcu.be/eOvwS 🧵
- 2/5 We know relatively little about gender wealth gaps in Canada because wealth data are primarily collected at the household level, which conceals within-family inequalities. To address this issue, we used a machine learning approach to estimate individual-level wealth for men and women.
- 3/5 Women consistently possess less wealth than men. However, this gap has narrowed significantly over time in the domain of workplace pension wealth.

View full thread5/5 It may still be too early for the effects of Québec’s policies on wealth gaps to be fully observable. We need research to keep tracking interprovincial trends going forward. More importantly, Canada needs individual-level data to better understand and address enduring gender wealth gaps.

- Le numéro spécial "Le patrimoine: une affaire de famille" que j'ai coordonné avec Maude Pugliese vient d'être mis en ligne. 4 articles et une intro pour étudier les stratégies patrimoniales familiales dans différents contextes historiques, nationaux et culturels. www.efg.inrs.ca/numero/2022-...
- L'argument central de notre intro : les inégalités de patrimoine gagnent à être appréhendées par une sociologie, une histoire, une anthropologie de la famille renouvelées qui s’intéressent à la formation et à la circulation du patrimoine parmi les apparenté·es.
- L’une des contributions importantes des articles de ce numéro est de montrer que le patrimoine, son accumulation, sa préservation et sa transmission sont en fait des préoccupations au sein des familles de toutes les classes sociales, pas seulement parmi les élites.
