Dear John,

From 2019 to 2023, Canadian living standards declined — and as of the end of 2023, the decline has not yet ended.

From April 2019 to the end of 2023, inflation-adjusted per-person GDP, a broad measure of living standards, declined from $59,905 to $58,111 or 3%.

This is the third-steepest decline in 40 years and is already the second-longest.

The severity of the decline in living standards should be a wake-up call for policymakers.

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis

President
