CGCD-50: The Canadian Graduate Capital Dividend

Canada holds $777 billion in pension wealth. 85% is invested outside the country — toll roads in Australia, rental developments in Korea, infrastructure in Texas. Meanwhile, youth unemployment has hit 14.7%, the highest in 15 years outside a pandemic. Housing is structurally unaffordable. University graduates face an economy that doesn't value their credentials.

The system is working exactly as designed. The design is the problem.

Graduate Capital Dividend

$50,000

For graduates of the last 10 years. Tied to housing, business startup, skills training, or debt elimination. Governed by graduates themselves.

Rent-to-Own Housing

50,000 units

Annually for under-35s. Market rent for 10 years, then automatic ownership. Built with repatriated pension capital.

Jobs Bridge

Investment

In Canadian companies with requirements for entry-level and apprenticeship positions. Real work, not another task force.

Quebec figured this out sixty years ago. The Caisse de dépôt et placement: $473 billion managed, $93 billion reinvested at home. Dual mandate — generate returns AND invest domestically. The only G7 jurisdiction that believed in its own people. The framework exists. The capital exists. What's been missing is the willingness to trust Canadians with their own money.

Six Songs. Six Genres. One Message.

Policy papers get filed. Songs get shared. Every track below was written for this campaign because the conversation about Canada's future deserves more than talking points.

Political Anthem

Receipts

Names 25+ Canadian communities. From Gander to Saskatoon, Halifax to Nanaimo. $1.9 billion leaves Canada every day. We checked the math. The math didn't match.

Anthem · Three-Part Harmony

The Architects (Rebuild Mix)

For the generation that did everything right and got locked out anyway. They don't need our permission. They never did. Step aside or step up.

Country

Not What It Used to Be

A country storyteller's account of a political system that forgot who it serves. Parliament debates lettuce. A woman writes policy. Your move, gentlemen.

Québécois Folk

La Caisse (Ce Que J'ai Vu)

An English-speaking Canadian who finally understood what Quebec built — and why the rest of Canada should have been listening all along. Merci, Québec.

Political Rap

Breaking News from the Hill

Parliament is debating grocery store surveillance. Meanwhile: 14.7% youth unemployment. We noticed. We wrote a song about it.

Jazz

We've Been Here Before

They told her to pick a lane. She built the whole road. A smoky jazz vocal that proves intelligence and magnetism were never mutually exclusive.

Don't Just Read the Policy. Feel It.

Three tools. One makes you think. One makes you play. One makes you heard. All three prove that $777 billion shouldn't be building airports in Dubai while Canadian graduates sleep in their cars.

Why I'm Running

Angela Lindow
"I might not win this seat. But this was never about the seat. It was about making sure a generation gets the chance to build better than we did."

I'm Angela Lindow, and I'm running as an independent candidate in University-Rosedale because the conversation about Canada's future has been too narrow for too long.

I'm not here to litigate the past. I'm here to build a bridge to the future. The capital exists. The talent exists. The model has been proven in Quebec for sixty years. What's been missing is the willingness to trust Canadians with their own money.

I wrote six songs because policy papers get filed and songs get shared. I built a calculator because people deserve to see their own numbers. I coded a game because engagement beats another press release. This is what a modern campaign looks like. Not red. Not blue. Something new.
