Adequacy of Welfare Incomes: Step 1

How adequate are welfare incomes in Canada?

Use data from our Welfare Incomes report to compare welfare incomes to several measures. Create your own charts and data tables based on household type, adequacy measures and province or territory.

  • Not all adequacy measures are available for all years.
  • For the three territories, after-tax median income is the only adequacy measure available.

  • For more information about definitions and methodology, refer to Welfare Incomes 2009.
