Abstract

Quebec lags behind its neighbor Ontario in terms of household wealth, a phenomenon that has become more pronounced over the past 25 years. A CIRANO study (Fonseca, Poschke, and Lord, 2025) provides a portrait of the wealth of different socioeconomic groups that make up Quebec and Ontario societies based on a detailed examination of the evolution of total household wealth, as well as the various components of wealth. The authors show that real estate is the main factor explaining the differences in wealth between Quebec and Ontario. Sur le plan de la richesse, le Québec est à la traîne de son voisin ontarien, un phénomène qui s’est accentué au cours des 25 dernières années. Une étude CIRANO (Fonseca, Poschke et Lord, 2025) offre un portrait de la richesse de différents groupes socioéconomiques qui composent les sociétés québécoise et ontarienne à partir d’un examen détaillé de l’évolution de la richesse totale des ménages, et aussi des différentes composantes de la richesse totale. Les auteurs montrent que c’est le patrimoine immobilier qui serait le principal facteur expliquant les différences de richesse entre le Québec et l’Ontario. → Lire le rapport de projet complet
