Canadian inflation currently stands at 6.8 per cent. This means that the loonie is losing nearly seven cents of purchasing power every 12 months. For a Canadian earning a median income of $55,700 per year, that translates to an annual inflationary loss of $3,787.60.

On the eve of the COVID-19 pandemic, Canadian federal debt stood at $686 billion. That’s now ballooned to more than $1.1 trillion. Even after a sharp scale back in government spending for the 2022 budget, Canada is still spending well above pre-pandemic levels; this year’s $52.8 billion deficit represents $1,400 per Canadian in new debt

Government spending has been so massive, in fact, that the average Canadian was ultimately sitting on more cash than if a pandemic had never happened. Or, as the Bank of Canada put it, “extraordinary fiscal support more than offset (pandemic) income losses, so on balance, household income increased.”
