Firms anticipate stronger demand as pandemic conditions improve, according to results from the Business Outlook Survey in the third quarter of 2021. However, many businesses face supply constraints that will limit their sales and put upward pressure on their costs. Together, these demand pressures and supply challenges are driving widespread plans to invest, hire staff and increase prices.2021-10-18T10:30:35+00:00enBusiness Outlook Survey―Third Quarter of 20212021-10-18Canadian Survey of Consumer Expectations—Third Quarter of 2021

This survey took place in the third quarter of 2021, after most Canadians had been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and as the Delta variant was beginning to spread more broadly in Canada. Results suggest that consumers plan to increase their spending significantly but remain cautious because of the Delta variant. Canadians think inflation will be higher in the near term due to supply disruptions, but they do not expect this situation to last. Although expectations for labour market conditions improved again, visible minorities, Indigenous people and people with disabilities are showing signs of vulnerabilities. Canadians are not expecting significant wage gains despite recent improvements in the labour market and perceptions of higher inflation.2021-10-18T10:29:00+00:00enCanadian Survey of Consumer Expectations—Third Quarter of 20212021-10-18Monitoring payment deferrals during the COVID-19 pandemic—update, July 2021

This survey also asked respondents how they are planning to use the extra savings they may have accumulated during the pandemic.2021-07-05T10:29:59+00:00enCanadian Survey of Consumer Expectations—Second Quarter of 20212021-07-05
