Today's GDP data allows for a full Canada and US comparison. Here's GDP per person, in US dollars adjusted for price level differences.



Highest in NY. Highest in Canada is Alberta (at 16th). Lowest is PEI. Lowest in US is Mississippi.

I remember someone posted that Canada had a much richer middle class than the USA when Stephen Harper was prime minister and Obama was president..



I miss those times.

Harper and Trump supported letting people keep more of their own money and reduced job suffocating regulations while Obama and Justine did the opposite. We see from this graph that Trump's way, not Justine's is the correct way.

North Dakota has a GDP/person of 72 grand. Gee, I wonder why that is.

Saskatchewan shares the Bakken oilfield with ND. They have the Dakota Access pipeline and no carbon tax. You figure it out.

Trump has made the US more competitive than Canada. Trudeau won't even entertain the idea of slashing regulations and simplifying the tax code to keep pace with our biggest trading partner. Hence, incomes in Canada are flat.

I've seen drilling crews stay in Estevan, Saskatchewan and cross the border each day because there are no rooms available in Williston.
