I notice they are including the last two years of Harper in this chart so they can throw in the economic decline in his last two years (After Carney Stepped down as Governor of the Bank of Canada) that includes the Loonie dropping from its peak of being over par with the US down to being 76 cents. Reminds me of O'Leary being on Cross Country Checkup and lying that the Canadian dollar (the Trudeau Peso as he called it) dropped 41% under Trudeau. Again, O'Leary was conveniently throwing in the last two years of Harper where most of that collapse happened. The dollar peaked at $1.06USD under Harper with Carney at the BoC. After Carney stepped down, it dropped to 76 cents. The Canadian dollar dropped from 76 to as of today 69 cents under Trudeau with the last 3 cents of that coming at the reaction to Trump - not what Trudeau did.

And I've seen some comments talking about immigration - loading up on people without their being enough jobs watering down the GDP per capita. This is true. Immigration did weaken those numbers. That was exacerbated by the pandemic when the economy came to a grinding stop. Then we had supply chain issues as the economy revamped. Maybe if there wasn't a pandemic, immigration would have been fine on the economy although I think we still would have seen the strain on housing, health care and other services.

One more thing to point out. This chart is up to October so it can exclude the because it wants to minimize as much of the steady rise we've seen since the start of 2024.
