So how are all these variables impacting indebted Canadians? On today’s podcast, Scott Terrio, Manager, Consumer Insolvency at Hoyes Michalos, returns to discuss what he’s seeing from individuals struggling with debt, borrowing trends, and the role inflation is playing in household budgets. Scott and Doug also share their thoughts on why homeowner-driven insolvencies may rise soon and give practical advice for what to do if you’re dealing with problem debt in this economic climate.
