Biography

University of Saskatchewan - Sociology

PHD Candidate at McGill University
Higher Education
Charles
Plante
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
I am a policy researcher, analyst and consultant. Most recently, I authored the "Business Case for a Living Wage" for Living Wage Saskatoon. In my former role as the Policy Director of Upstream, I calculated the 3.8 billion dollar cost of poverty figure that was instrumental in convincing the Government of Saskatchewan to commit to adopting a comprehensive poverty reduction strategy.

In addition, I am currently finishing up my PhD in Sociology at McGill University and teaching statistics as a sessional lecturer at the University of Saskatchewan.
