Canadians are struggling more than ever to balance their budgets. Runaway inflation is out of control, and the explosive cost of living has more Canadians using credit to fill the gap left after paychecks have run out. Tom Locke, 2023 ThreeBestRated® Award Winner, from London, says “statistics help us understand how we got into this mess. Of 38 million Canadians, only about 17 million have jobs. Of that number about 25% work for the government, reducing the revenue generating portion of the workforce to 14.5 million people.”
Locke continues, Canada has more than 80 million bank issued credit cards in circulation, totalling about five (5) bank issued credit cards for every working Canadian. The Bank of Canada has around $113 billion of money (cash) in circulation, yet Canadians are able to charge more than $600 billion on (bank) credit cards each year. Incomes have dropped for decades, as Canadians have increasingly used debt to pay basic living costs. Today, Canadian consumers are the most in debt people on earth.
For the past few years some folks have avoided dealing with debt by consolidating unsecured debts, such as credit cards and lines of credit, into mortgages. The impact has been huge, now that mortgage rates are stabilizing, and house prices are plummeting this has proven to be a predictable problem. As the recession deepens, it is imperative to deal with lingering, and often growing, debt. A Consumer Proposal is the first line of defense against excessive debt and problem debt. A Consumer Proposal can reduce the face value of all your debt to pennies on the dollar and allow you to make one single, affordable monthly payment.
