I'm finding the Canadian consumer spending tracker from RBC to be a valuable look at the health of Canadian shoppers. We won't get the retail sales report until next Friday but today I noted some poor same-store sales numbers from Canadian Tire.
Now, the latest report from RBC is out and it highlights a 'sluggish start' to 2025 spending.

The survey noted a 1.2% m/m drop in restaurant reservations (seasonally adjusted).
A hint of good news came on a pickup in home-related spending, something they said could mean a lift in the housing market.
Read the report.
