After The Boom: Canada and the Demographic Shift examines the structural changes reshaping Canada in the decades following the Baby Boom generation. As fertility rates fall, populations age, and the ratio between workers and dependents tightens, the country faces pressures that extend far beyond politics and into housing, healthcare, productivity, and social cohesion.Rather than treating demographics as abstract statistics, this book connects population change to everyday Canadian realities, including rising costs, strained institutions, and generational imbalance. It explores how past assumptions about growth no longer hold, and why policy decisions made without demographic realism risk long-term instability.Written with a calm, analytical tone, After The Boom argues that Canada’s future depends on aligning immigration, economic planning, and public services with demographic capacity. It offers a grounded framework for adaptation that emphasizes sustainability, responsibility, and institutional resilience over short-term political thinking.Read alongside Canadianism: A Calm Alternative for a Fractured Country, this book continues Christopher M. Michaud’s examination of the long-term forces shaping Canada’s stability and cohesion.
