Statistics on income inequality based on the Gini index and the p90/p10 ratio on various household income concepts (market income, total income, after-tax income) for Canada, provinces and territories, census divisions and census subdivisions.

This statistic shows the Gini coefficient of Canada from 2000 to 2021. In 2021, the Gini coefficient of Canada was 0.288.

The gini index in Canada was forecast to remain on a similar level in 2029 as compared to 2024 with 0.33 points. According to this forecast, the gini will stay nearly the same over the forecast period. The Gini coefficient here measures the degree of income inequality on a scale from 0 (=total equality of incomes) to one (=total inequality).The shown data are an excerpt of Statista's Key Market Indicators (KMI). The KMI are a collection of primary and secondary indicators on the macro-economic, demographic and technological environment in more than 150 countries and regions worldwide. All input data are sourced from international institutions, national statistical offices, and trade associations. All data has been are processed to generate comparable datasets (see supplementary notes under details for more information).Find more key insights for the gini index in countries like United States and Mexico.

This statistic shows the Gini coefficient of provinces in Canada in 2021. In 2021, the Gini coefficient of Ontario, Canada was 0.3, making it Canada's most inequitable province in terms of after-tax income.

This statistic shows the share of total after-tax income earned by the lowest income decile in Canada in 2021, by province. In 2021, income earners in the lowest income decile earned 1.3 percent of all after-tax income in Saskatchewan, Canada.

Historical dataset showing Canada income inequality - gini coefficient by year from N/A to N/A.

Canada CA: Gini Coefficient (GINI Index): World Bank Estimate data was reported at 31.700 % in 2019. This records a decrease from the previous number of 32.500 % for 2018. Canada CA: Gini Coefficient (GINI Index): World Bank Estimate data is updated yearly, averaging 33.200 % from Dec 1971 (Median) to 2019, with 43 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 37.300 % in 1971 and a record low of 31.000 % in 1989. Canada CA: Gini Coefficient (GINI Index): World Bank Estimate data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Canada – Table CA.World Bank.WDI: Social: Poverty and Inequality. Gini index measures the extent to which the distribution of income (or, in some cases, consumption expenditure) among individuals or households within an economy deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. A Lorenz curve plots the cumulative percentages of total income received against the cumulative number of recipients, starting with the poorest individual or household. The Gini index measures the area between the Lorenz curve and a hypothetical line of absolute equality, expressed as a percentage of the maximum area under the line. Thus a Gini index of 0 represents perfect equality, while an index of 100 implies perfect inequality.;World Bank, Poverty and Inequality Platform. Data are based on primary household survey data obtained from government statistical agencies and World Bank country departments. Data for high-income economies are mostly from the Luxembourg Income Study database.

When surveyed in September 2022, over three-quarters of Canadians believed that the government should reduce the income gap between rich and poor. This opinion was more widely shared among Canadians supporting the New Democratic Party (** percent) and Bloc Québécois sympathizers (** percent), than among Conservative Party supporters (** percent) and among Canadians not supporting any particular party (** percent).

These datasets form the basis of an empirical inquiry into whether income inequality belongs in a macro model of voter turnout. Time series modeling suggests that the Gini coefficient enters nonlinearly in Canada and this finding is confirmed in a panel data model of Indian states.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in New Canada town. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

Key observations: Insights from 2023

Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In New Canada town, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $52,250 for males and $27,500 for females.

These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in New Canada town. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 53 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 47%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the town of New Canada town.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In New Canada town, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $63,125, while females earned $51,375, leading to a 19% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 81 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time roles. This analysis indicates a widening gender pay gap, showing a substantial income disparity where women, despite working full-time, face a more significant wage discrepancy compared to men in the same roles.

Surprisingly, the gender pay gap percentage was higher across all roles, including non-full-time employment, for women compared to men. This suggests that full-time employment offers a more equitable income scenario for women compared to other employment patterns in New Canada town.
