Details

This project aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of Canada's financial landscape, focusing on national debt, tax distribution, personal debt, and cost of living across provinces and territories. The goal is to equip learners with the skills to gather, analyze, and present financial data effectively. Students will research Canada's national debt figures and explore how various taxes collected by the government are allocated. Additionally, they will investigate the current debt levels of Canadian citizens and the methods they use to manage and pay off this debt. The project will also include an analysis of the cost of living in different provinces and territories, offering insights into regional economic disparities. By synthesizing this information, students will gain a deeper understanding of the economic factors affecting Canadians and develop their data analysis and presentation skills.

  • Research Canada's national debt and tax allocation.
  • Analyze personal debt levels and repayment methods among Canadians.
  • Investigate cost of living variations across provinces and territories.
  • Synthesize findings into a comprehensive report.
Deliverables

The project will culminate in a detailed report that includes visual data representations, such as charts and graphs, to illustrate the financial landscape of Canada. Students will also prepare a presentation summarizing their findings, highlighting key insights and regional differences. The deliverables will include:

  • A comprehensive written report detailing national debt, tax allocation, personal debt, and cost of living by region.
  • Visual data representations to support the analysis.
