The statistic shows the gross domestic product growth rate in Canada from 2020 to 2024, with projections up until 2030. In 2024, Canada’s real GDP growth was around 1.53 percent compared to the previous year.Economy of CanadaAs an indicator for the shape of a country’s economy, there are not many factors as telling as GDP. GDP is the total market value of all final goods and services that have been produced within a country within a given period of time, usually a year. Real GDP figures serve as an even more reliable tool in determining the direction in which a country’s economy may be swaying, as they are adjusted for inflation and reflect real price changes.Canada is one of the largest economies in the world and is counted among the globe’s wealthiest nations. It has a relatively small labor force in comparison to some of the world’s other largest economic powers, amounting to just under 19 million. Unemployment in Canada has remained relatively high as the country has battled against the tide of economic woe that swept across the majority of the world after the 2008 financial meltdown, and although moving in the right direction, there is still some way to go for Canada.Canada is among the leading trading nations worldwide, owing to the absolutely vast supplies of natural resources, which make up a key part of the Canadian trading relationship with the United States, the country with which Canada trades by far the most. In recent years, around three quarters of Canadian exports went to the United States and just over half of its imports came from its neighbor to the south. The relationship is very much mutually beneficial; Canada is the leading foreign energy supplier to the United States.

The statistic shows the average inflation rate in Canada from 1987 to 2024, with projections up until 2030. The inflation rate is calculated using the price increase of a defined product basket. This product basket contains products and services, on which the average consumer spends money throughout the year. They include expenses for groceries, clothes, rent, power, telecommunications, recreational activities and raw materials (e.g. gas, oil), as well as federal fees and taxes. In 2022, the average inflation rate in Canada was approximately 6.8 percent compared to the previous year. For comparison, inflation in India amounted to 5.56 percent that same year. Inflation in Canada In general, the inflation rate in Canada follows a global trend of decreasing inflation rates since 2011, with the lowest slump expected to occur during 2015, but forecasts show an increase over the following few years. Additionally, Canada's inflation rate is in quite good shape compared to the rest of the world. While oil and gas prices have dropped in Canada much like they have around the world, food and housing prices in Canada have been increasing. This has helped to offset some of the impact of dropping oil and gas prices and the effect this has had on Canada´s inflation rate. The annual consumer price index of food and non-alcoholic beverages in Canada has been steadily increasing over the last decade. The same is true for housing and other price indexes for the country. In general there is some confidence that the inflation rate will not stay this low for long, it is expected to return to a comfortable 2 percent by 2017 if estimates are correct.
The statistic shows the gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in Canada from 1987 to 2023, with projections up until 2029. In 2023, the gross domestic product per capita in Canada was around 53,607.4 U.S. dollars. Canada's economy GDP per capita is a measurement often used to determine economic growth and potential increases in productivity and is calculated by taking the GDP and dividing it by the total population in the country. In 2014, Canada had one of the largest GDP per capita values in the world, a value that has grown continuously since 2010 after experiencing a slight downturn due to the financial crisis of 2008. Canada is seen as one of the premier countries in the world, particularly due to its strong economy and healthy international relations, most notably with the United States. Canada and the United States have political, social and economical similarities that further strengthen their relationship. The United States was and continues to be Canada’s primary and most important trade partner and vice versa. Canada’s economy is partly supported by its exports, most notably crude oil, which was the country’s largest export category. Canada was also one of the world’s leading oil exporters in 2013, exporting more than the United States. Additionally, Canada was also a major exporter of goods such as motor vehicles and mechanical appliances, which subsequently ranked the country as one of the world’s top export countries in 2013.
Inflation is generally defined as the continued increase in the average prices of goods and services in a given region. Following the extremely high global inflation experienced in the 1980s and 1990s, global inflation has been relatively stable since the turn of the millennium, usually hovering between three and five percent per year. There was a sharp increase in 2008 due to the global financial crisis now known as the Great Recession, but inflation was fairly stable throughout the 2010s, before the current inflation crisis began in 2021. Recent years Despite the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic, the global inflation rate fell to 3.26 percent in the pandemic's first year, before rising to 4.66 percent in 2021. This increase came as the impact of supply chain delays began to take more of an effect on consumer prices, before the Russia-Ukraine war exacerbated this further. A series of compounding issues such as rising energy and food prices, fiscal instability in the wake of the pandemic, and consumer insecurity have created a new global recession, and global inflation in 2024 is estimated to have reached 5.76 percent. This is the highest annual increase in inflation since 1996. Venezuela Venezuela is the country with the highest individual inflation rate in the world, forecast at around 200 percent in 2022. While this is figure is over 100 times larger than the global average in most years, it actually marks a decrease in Venezuela's inflation rate, which had peaked at over 65,000 percent in 2018. Between 2016 and 2021, Venezuela experienced hyperinflation due to the government's excessive spending and printing of money in an attempt to curve its already-high inflation rate, and the wave of migrants that left the country resulted in one of the largest refugee crises in recent years. In addition to its economic problems, political instability and foreign sanctions pose further long-term problems for Venezuela. While hyperinflation may be coming to an end, it remains to be seen how much of an impact this will have on the economy, how living standards will change, and how many refugees may return in the coming years.

Scientific and economic consultants in Canada enjoyed strong growth in large part due to robust demand from niche clients and a rapid economic recovery following a period of high volatility. Significant growth in demand from the agriculture, energy and mining sectors, which are one of the largest customer segments in the industry, helped stabilize revenue growth despite sharp volatility from other sectors of the economy amid the pandemic and the impact of rising interest rates to combat inflation. Since consultants service a diverse array of clients, a decrease in one may lead to an opportunity in another. These trends caused revenue to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% to an estimated $7.3 billion through the end of 2024, including an estimated 0.2% boost in 2024, primarily influenced by rising government investment. The mining sector in Canada has experienced volatile performance over the past five years due to fluctuating commodity prices, which influence production levels, revenue and profit. As mining companies' revenue and profit decreased, many cut back on expenditures and reduced the number of expansion projects, which caused a decline in demand for niche operators' services. A rapid economic recovery following the pandemic reversed this trend, although sharp growth in inflation influenced mining companies' profit margin and dampened broader corporate profit across Canada. Nonetheless, due to consultants’ diverse service offering, declines in demand for one segment are often mitigated by increases in demand from other industries. For instance, demand from the agriculture sector offset some of the declines in demand from energy and mining companies during the pandemic, which helped maintain high profit levels. Over the next five years, revenue is forecast to continue rising as the economy continues to stabilize following high inflation and interest rates are lowered. A continued stream of demand from many other customer segments and government expenditures are expected to rise as the economy expands over the next five years. Overall, revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.6% to an estimated $8.3 billion over the next five years.

Janitorial service companies in Canada have been navigating a turbulent period marked by economic fluctuations and evolving market demands. Initially, as nonresidential construction suffered a decrease during COVID-19 due to social distancing measures and closed offices, commercial demand for janitorial services waned. However, an upswing in residential construction, driven by low interest rates, somewhat offset these losses, preventing a dramatic dip in revenue during the pandemic's height. After the initial pandemic-induced revenue drop, the industry’s fortunes were revived in 2021 and 2022 as corporate profit surged. However, this momentum was soon stymied by supply chain disruptions and rising inflation, which increased operating costs and cut into companies’ incomes. The industry's trajectory further stalled as the negative impact of high interest rates chilled residential construction and a resultant decline in consumer spending due to recessionary fears further contracted demand for commercial cleaning services. Since these developments reduced revenue in 2023 and 2024, profit’s revenue share has declined over the past few years. Overall, revenue for janitorial service companies in Canada has crept downward at a CAGR of 1.1% over the past five years, reaching $CA7.9 billion in 2025. This includes a 2.1% increase in revenue in that year. Looking forward, providers are poised to leverage an optimistic economic outlook despite potential hurdles due to changes in US policy. Anticipated reductions in interest rates by the Bank of Canada could boost both residential and nonresidential construction, consequently revitalizing demand for cleaning services. With economic growth expected to increase GDP and per capita disposable income, this should fuel consumer spending, leading to greater corporate profit and, therefore, more investment in the industry’s services. In response, companies are likely to diversify their offerings, focusing on niche areas like green cleaning initiatives, as consumer sentiment towards climate change shifts. Technological advancements such as AI and robotics are also expected to reshape how services are delivered, enhancing efficiency but potentially sidelining smaller providers unable to keep pace. Overall, revenue for janitorial services providers in Canada is forecast to expand at a CAGR of 2.6% over the next five years, reaching $CA9.0 billion in 2030.
The statistic shows the unemployment rate in Canada from 2019 to 2023, with projections up until 2029. In 2023, the unemployment rate in Canada was at around 5.41 percent. Canada’s economy Three-quarter of Canada’s workforce is employed in the services sector, with the other two sectors, agriculture and industry, accounting for the rest of Canada’s employment. The country’s main export and import partner is the United States. Although both export and import figures have increased over the last few years, the trade balance of goods in Canada – i.e. the value of Canada’s exports minus the value of its imports – has slumped dramatically since the economic crisis hit in 2008. In 2009, for the first time in a decade, Canada reported a trade deficit, and the figures are still struggling to recover. Additionally, Canada’s public debt has been increasing since the crisis. Although a few key figures are still not back to the usual level, Canada and its economy seem to have more or less bounced back from the crisis; as can be seen above, the unemployment rate is gradually decreasing, for example, and gross domestic product / GDP in Canada has been increasing steadily. Canada is thus among the countries with the largest proportion of global gross domestic product / GDP based on Purchasing Power Parity. Canada is among the leading trading nations worldwide, and an important part of its economy is the export of oil. The country hosts significant oil resources, in fact, its capacity is the third-largest after those of Saudi Arabia and Venezuela.
The gross domestic product (GDP) of all G7 countries decreased sharply in 2009 and 2020 due to the financial crisis and COVID-19 pandemic, respectively. The growth decline was heavier after the COVID-19 pandemic than the financial crisis. Moreover, Italy had a negative GDP growth rate in 2012 and 2013 following the euro crisis. In 2023, Germany experienced an economic recession.

Packaging and labeling service companies have weathered substantial changes in recent years. The rapid growth of e-commerce sales, especially during COVID-19, rapidly bolstered demand for logistics, packaging and labeling services, resulting in substantial revenue growth in 2020 and 2021. As restrictions eased, a shift back to in-person shopping led to a slowdown in e-commerce growth from 2022, though growth in e-commerce sales still outpaced the overall economy due to the convenience of online shopping. Regardless, slower growth in e-commerce sales reduced revenue growth somewhat and contributed to a modest decline in profit over the past five years. While strong economic growth benefited providers during the pandemic recovery, rising inflation in 2022 affected consumer spending, reducing demand for ancillary industries and hindering revenue. The Federal Reserve's interest rate increases from 2022 to 2024 enhanced recessionary fears through constraining consumer spending. In response, manufacturers began insourcing packaging to cut expenses and preserve profit in case of a potential downturn, reducing demand for the industry’s services and slowing revenue growth in 2023 and 2024. In late 2024, a reversal in interest rates provided a more positive outlook for 2025 but future economic policies remain uncertain. Overall, revenue for packaging and labeling service providers has swelled at a CAGR of 3.1% over the past five years, reaching $13.8 billion in 2025. This includes a 2.0% rise in revenue in that year. Due to steady economic growth, packaging and labeling service companies are expected to benefit from stable revenue streams. Although e-commerce market saturation will slow revenue growth compared to previous years, higher GDP and wage growth will boost consumer spending, driving demand for these services. Elevated corporate profit will also encourage businesses to outsource packaging, providing additional revenue opportunities. However, tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico and China could disrupt economic stability, reduce GDP growth and lower consumer spending, impacting demand for the industry’s services. Compliance with the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) will heighten reliance on packaging firms despite increased regulatory costs. On top of this, intelligent packaging, which leverages technologies like sensors and blockchain, is poised to revolutionize the industry, favoring larger corporations that can adopt these innovations, while smaller companies might target niche markets to remain competitive. Overall, revenue for packaging and labeling service companies is forecast to expand at a CAGR of 1.9% over the next five years, reaching $15.1 billion in 2030.
In May 2025, global inflation rates and central bank interest rates showed significant variation across major economies. Most economies initiated interest rate cuts from mid-2024 due to declining inflationary pressures. The U.S., UK, and EU central banks followed a consistent pattern of regular rate reductions throughout late 2024. In early 2025, Russia maintained the highest interest rate at 20 percent, while Japan retained the lowest at 0.5 percent. Varied inflation rates across major economies The inflation landscape varies considerably among major economies. China had the lowest inflation rate at -0.1 percent in May 2025. In contrast, Russia maintained a high inflation rate of 9.9 percent. These figures align with broader trends observed in early 2025, where China had the lowest inflation rate among major developed and emerging economies, while Russia's rate remained the highest. Central bank responses and economic indicators Central banks globally implemented aggressive rate hikes throughout 2022-23 to combat inflation. The European Central Bank exemplified this trend, raising rates from 0 percent in January 2022 to 4.5 percent by September 2023. A coordinated shift among major central banks began in mid-2024, with the ECB, Bank of England, and Federal Reserve initiating rate cuts, with forecasts suggesting further cuts through 2025 and 2026.

The statistic shows the total population in Canada from 2020 to 2024, with projections up until 2030. In 2024, the total population in Canada amounted to about 41.14 million inhabitants. Population of Canada Canada ranks second among the largest countries in the world in terms of area size, right behind Russia, despite having a relatively low total population. The reason for this is that most of Canada remains uninhabited due to inhospitable conditions. Approximately 90 percent of all Canadians live within about 160 km of the U.S. border because of better living conditions and larger cities. On a year to year basis, Canada’s total population has continued to increase, although not dramatically. Population growth as of 2012 has amounted to its highest values in the past decade, reaching a peak in 2009, but was unstable and constantly fluctuating. Simultaneously, Canada’s fertility rate dropped slightly between 2009 and 2011, after experiencing a decade high birth rate in 2008. Standard of living in Canada has remained stable and has kept the country as one of the top 20 countries with the highest Human Development Index rating. The Human Development Index (HDI) measures quality of life based on several indicators, such as life expectancy at birth, literacy rate, education levels and gross national income per capita. Canada has a relatively high life expectancy compared to many other international countries, earning a spot in the top 20 countries and beating out countries such as the United States and the UK. From an economic standpoint, Canada has been slowly recovering from the 2008 financial crisis. Unemployment has gradually decreased, after reaching a decade high in 2009. Additionally, GDP has dramatically increased since 2009 and is expected to continue to increase for the next several years.
