National Debt Index
A real-time tracking of Canada’s total federal net debt and its associated accrual velocity.
Statistics Canada Table 10-10-0015-01
The index is anchored to the "Net Debt" figure (Liabilities minus Financial Assets) for the Federal General Government. Velocity is calculated based on the annualized increase reported in the most recent fiscal session.
Access Institutional Raw DataThis metric represents a structural divergence that is often occluded by short-term nominal reporting. By normalizing for population velocity, we expose the material deficit inherent in current policy structures.
Uninterrupted debt expansion at the current velocity ($2,752/sec) increases the portion of tax revenue required for debt servicing. This restricts the national capacity to fund discretionary social programs, infrastructure, and defense, while increasing vulnerability to global interest rate fluctuations.
