The response is correct but is in no way limited to Canada. It applies to most Western countries

See that’s one thing I wish people would stop saying. “Wages are keeping up with inflation “ because the fact is wages are apart of inflation.

as someone that assess people's finances for a living, we are all so poor and we're not spending money on anything other then basic needs.

I also am Canadian and have no debt other than our house. My husband works in mortgage enforcement and there are a lot of successful people who have second recreational homes and interest rates spiked so much, people who were doing okay, lost their homes. Now we do well for our family but living costs and wages are not mathing. We do well on paper it would seem but we still are breaking even and we wonder everyday how someone with a single income and a couple kids are living.

Just before covid, my daughter was able to pay rent, buy groceries, go on trips, and eat out in nice restaurants and still had money left over with $30,000 in her savings account. She had to give up her "luxuries" she has no cable and lived off grid for 2 years in her tiny cabin.

You are a 10 out of 10 in looks. Then when you add your intelligence you jump to a 20 out of 10. Love your common sense

Yes Ma’am! You are 100% correct! Take a look at sale sites. People are selling EVERYTHING they can to try and survive!

all your points are well defined in fact, but I do believe there is a spending addiction also going on. not with big items but in the $30 to $50 range. most of which are not needed.

And I'm going to add, that the quality of EVERYTHING has declined drastically. It's all junk, cheaply made. I've lost count of how many things I've purchased that broke with a few months. From heaters to fans to appliances... Im actually looking in thrift stores for good quality items. At least if those break you don't lose a lot of money.

Home brace is doubled under Harper. They only went up 50% under Trudeau. So for that one we’ve had plenty of time to adjust.
