When we compare trends in the wellbeing of Canadians to economic growth in the period from 1994 to 2014, the gap between GDP and our wellbeing is massive and it's growing. [...] And while the percentage of people reporting high levels of time pressure has declined somewhat since the peak of the late 1990s, overall, the numbers have returned to 1994 levels. [...] Yet, while Canada can boast being one of the most prosperous countries in the world and having avoided the worst of the economic impacts of the 2008 recession, we cannot boast that the wellbeing of Canadians has kept pace. [...] The Canadian Index of Wellbeing has adopted the following as its working definition: The presence of the highest possible quality of life in its full breadth of expression focused on but not necessarily exclusive to: good living standards, robust health, a sustainable environment, vital communities, an educated populace, balanced time use, high levels of democratic participation, and access to and [...] The process culminated in the identification of core Canadian values and eight domains of life that contribute to and affect the wellbeing of Canadians: Community Vitality, Democratic Engagement, Education, Environment, Healthy Populations, Leisure and Culture, Living Standards, and Time Use (see Figure 2).

"There is a feeling that all is not well in Canada. But it’s more than a feeling; it’s a fact. When we compare trends in the wellbeing of Canadians to economic growth in the period from 1994 to 2014, the gap between GDP and our wellbeing is massive and it’s growing. When Canadians go to bed at night, they are not worried about GDP. They are worried about stringing together enough hours of part-time jobs, rising tuition fees, and affordable housing. They are thinking about the last time they got together with friends or the next time they can take a vacation. Maybe that’s why we are getting less sleep than 21 years ago."--Executive summary.

We can see how the economy is changing, but GDP sheds no light on the health of our population, on the vibrancy of our democracy and our communities, on the growing inequality within our country, on the sustainability of our environment, or on other aspects of the quality of life of Canadians. [...] The findings uncover some troubling truths about the connection between our wellbeing and the economy, and beg the question: Are our governments truly responding to the needs and values of everyday Canadians? [...] In contrast, the impact of the recession on the CIW was a stunning 24% decline and shows no such sign of recovery to even the modest gains made up to 2008. [...] The figure that follows illustrates the growth in Canada's GDP from 1994 to 2010, and contrasts it with the gains made in the CIW and each of its eight domains. [...] The past two to three years has revealed a slight widening of the income gap, reduced levels of economic security (down by 6.4%), a smaller percentage of the labour force employed (down by 3.0%), a reduction in the quality of employment (down by 2.0%), and especially, a dramatic increase in the percentage of the labour force out of work for a long period of time (up by 41.7%).
