Here's how Canadians feel about 2023 and the top word they use to describe it

Here's how Canadians feel about 2023 and the top word they use to describe it

Another calendar year has all but passed, and as Canadians reflect on the past 12 months, public opinion research firm the Angus Reid Institute says 2023 is receiving mixed reviews. The firm asked 1,500 people how satisfied they are with the year, and some of the answers may surprise you.

Another calendar year has all but passed, and as Canadians reflect on the past 12 months, public opinion research firm the Angus Reid Institute says 2023 is receiving mixed reviews.

How people feel about the year varies to some extent based on factors like their age and sex, but for many, it appears the overall economic picture has soured memories of the year.

The firm surveyed 1,516 Canadian adults, who are members of the Angus Reid Forum, between Dec. 15 and 19 and found that, considering factors such as their health, happiness and financial situation, 70 per cent say they are either happy or very happy as 2023 comes to a close. Meanwhile, 27 per cent they are "not too happy."

After a difficult year for many Canadians' finances, 44 per cent said they are dissatisfied with their economic situation. Predictably, financial unhappiness is much more common in lower income brackets than higher ones.

On the mental health front, 32 per cent of respondents say they're dissatisfied with how they feel currently. The figure is higher among young women, 45 per cent of whom say their mental health could be better.

To measure Canadians' satisfaction levels, Angus Reid separated respondents into four groups along what it calls a "Life Satisfaction Index" based on their answers. These include the very satisfied, the satisfied, the dissatisfied and the very dissatisfied.

According to the survey results, the biggest variables driving life satisfaction include age, income level and whether or not respondents live with kids.
