    No one will invest in a country with an endless falling dollar. The Bank of Canada can't endlessly try to artificially prop up the value of the Canadian dollar.

    Unless we see deflation, the damage is done. The price of goods, specially rent/mortgage, and groceries, is now too high relative to wages. Wages will slowly rise over the next few years, but goods inflation jumped 30% and it might take 6 years for wages to catch up.. provided groceries and rent hold steady.. which they won't. Only the top 25% of Canadians are not feeling this squeeze that much. The lower a person is on the income ladder, the more this grocery and rent bill is hitting hard. If someone makes 40k a yr (median income), groceries and rent make up 70% of their total income. It is a huge deal. Our politicians don't get it, because they make far more than 40k/yr.

    In third world countries, groceries and rent also make up 70%+ of someone's income. Just working to eat and have shelter is the definition of a poor nation. Check out the government's own website, statcan and you can see that median income is 43k/yr. 50% of employed people in Canada make less than 43k/yr. With groceries and rent where they are now, the only difference between Canada and any 3rd world nation is we have more infrastructure due to our hard working past, and less corruption, again, because of the cultural norms developed in this nation in the past. We are living off our past wealth and borrowing against our future prosperity to maintain a sense of normalcy. That will not last.

    Yeah. Im one. We have household income of 100k a year. Rent alone is killing us. We usually just stay home to avoid unnecessary expenses and be able to save but still not enough. How much more for others with lesser income and with low self control? Tbh, I get them. Im borderline about to give up as well. Just live my life as fun as I could bc!!

    There is also Xennials (myself included - 84) which is often left out. A mix of Gen X and Millennial. To quote the first thing that popped up in google "People typically consider the Xennial generation to include individuals who were born between 1977 and 1983, while some argue the generation extends to 1985".. I do not consider myself a millennial
