Will Canadian Banks Survive Rising Mortgage Delinquencies & Personal Debt?

Total household debt in Canada has reached $2.55 trillion, with non-mortgage debt averaging $21,859 per consumer. The situation is particularly concerning in Ontario, where mortgage delinquency rates have increased by 71.5% year-over-year. • A "mortgage renewal wall" is approaching, with about 60% of all outstanding mortgages coming up for renewal in the next couple of years, facing significantly higher interest rates (4-5% range compared to previous sub-2% rates). • Nearly a third of mortgage renewers are using debt to pay off other debt, while younger borrowers and lower-income households are showing increasing signs of financial stress. • Credit card spending has decreased to its lowest since March 2022, suggesting cautious consumer behavior, but payment rates are falling, especially among Canadians under 35.
