For the second consecutive year, fewer women are giving in birth in Canada. The country now has a birth rate of 1.26 children per woman, with some provinces like British Columbia reporting a rate of only 1 child per woman. Yet, the number of children remained consistent year-over-year at 350,000, although there was a 5% […]
Over 130 nations are attempting to create a digital currency as we move toward a cashless society. I recently explained how Australia is prioritizing a wholesale CBDC with a retail one to follow. The Bank of Canada recently shelved plans to create a digital Loonie, but rest assured this is a mere pause as the […]
The Bank of Canada voted to cut rates by 25 bps to 4.25%, marking the third consecutive rate cut. Inflation has allegedly slowed to 2.5% as of July, and Governor Tiff Macklem said that was reason enough to drop rates to attract investment. “If inflation continues to ease broadly in line with our July forecast, […]
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/TrudeauDonuts_64b1f1.mp4 I commend the restraint displayed by this Canadian citizen.

Trudeau praised the 25% tariffs he placed on Chinese steel. “So that’s going to help me keep my job?” the citizen remarked. No, tariffs […]
The migrant crisis in Canada has the nation in ruin. Home inventory has shrank to unseen levels as millions of migrants and foreign workers have caused a massive uptick in demand.

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trudeau-Grest-Reset.mp4 The Fraser Institute conducted a study that found Canadians are experiencing the worst standard of living in the past 40 years. Conditions are beneath what was experienced during the 89 recession, the Great Recession, and even the early stages of the post-pandemic. What is going on in Canada? Justin Trudeau uprooted Canada’s fiscal landscape […]
Inefficient politicians consistently cite additional taxation as the solution to their nation’s economic troubles. The housing crisis in Canada is has spread to every province. Instead of addressing availability, the disproportionate demand brought on by multiplying the nation with migrants, or any of the countless fiscal policies that have contributed to inflation, the Canadian government […]
Unemployment in Canada ticked up by 0.2% in June to 6.4%, yet the economy lost 1,400 jobs. Around 1.4 million Canadians were looking for work as of June 2024, a 42,000 person increase from May. Overall employment has fallen in eight of the past nine months to 61.1% in June. So where are all the […]
World leaders spend recklessly with no regard for the overall economy. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has fallen out of favor for one primary reason – the cost of living is too high. Canada is deeply indebted, and now ranks the third-highest nation in household debt in the world. Switzerland and Australia are the only […]
The Liberals of Canada have fallen out of favor, as evidenced by party’s defeat in the special election. Toronto – St. Paul’s had been filled by Liberals since 1993, but has been overtaken by Conservatives.
