  • Generation Squeeze (also known as GenSqueeze) is a Canadian, non-partisan, non-profit organization that advocates on behalf of young adults. The organization claims to have modeled itself after CARP, an organization that advocates for Canadians 45 and older. Generation Squeeze stated purpose is to provide a voice for younger Canadians in the world of politics and the marketplace. The organization has been involved in advocacy related to the issues of affordable childcare, housing, wages, transit, and government spending on youth. The organization also encourages youth involvement in politics and voting. In May 2015, the organization co-hosted the #donthave1million rally in Vancouver. In May 2016, the group launched its Code Red housing campaign in Vancouver, calling for a government rethink of housing policy.
