You spoke briefly at the end about the need to recognize that there are others who live in poverty too, single women and single men who don't live in families as we know them, that kind of thing. The Quebec definition of poverty includes social exclusion, which is defined as a condition of a human being who is deprived of resources, means, choices, and power necessary to acquire and maintain economic self-sufficiency or facilitate integration and participation in society. On the economic front--of course, fighting poverty is good economic policy as well—Quebec is unique in the recognition of the need to use creative vehicles like cooperatives and the social economy to reduce poverty.
In your mind, what is social exclusion, and how does the concept of social exclusion influence the provincial strategy? How do you measure that?
