Albertans Scrambling To Keep Up With Bills
A recent MNP Consumer Debt Sentiment Survey found 35 per cent of Albertans don’t have enough money coming in to keep up with their financial obligations. With Alberta’s economic downturn and thousands of households across the province grappling with the harsh realities of unemployment, it’s not surprising to learn many are struggling financially. What is surprising, is just how many are on the brink of financial ruin with Alberta’s consumer debt the highest in the country.
