Survey Says 60% of Canadians Couldn’t Survive Missing a Paycheque

Could You Survive Missing a Paycheque? A new survey says 60% of Canadians couldn’t

Are you able to afford missing one paycheque? Last week the Canadian Payroll Association released a survey which showed that 6 out of 10 Canadians would be unable to meet their financial obligations if they only missed one paycheque.

Credit Counselling Society’s President & CEO, Scott Hannah, and our Winnipeg Credit Counsellor, Christi Quinn, discussed what this means to normal consumers and how Canadians can protect themselves from personal financial disaster on CJOB Radio, Winnipeg.
