The Disappearing Middle Class in Canada
The middle class in Canada is steadily disappearing, as income inequality continues to widen. Based on Stats Canada data, this post explores how shifts in family structure—particularly the decline of single-income households and the rise of dual-income earners—are distorting income statistics. Affluent dual-income families skew the top of the data, while single earners struggle near the bottom, leaving fewer truly “middle” households. It’s a revealing look at how tax policy and family economics are reshaping the Canadian middle class.
In 2025, Canada’s middle class continues to diminish amid increasing income inequality. Middle-income households struggle with stagnant wages and higher debts, while wealth concentrates among the top earners. Tax policies favoring dual-income families further exacerbate the decline of the traditional middle class.
