This is particularly a concern for Canadians with household incomes under $60K (48% are very concerned), BIPOC Canadians (43%), and Canadians aged 18 to 34 (34%). Some provinces are affected more than others, as well. These results, like other self-sponsored studies that Advanis makes available to government and not-for-profits, are available [here](https://www.tellcityhall.ca/report.html?k=a:en:saas006672:MzU.KTH8j6hsiEVebU5rbBfq1nB0bnc) on the *Tell City Hall* website. Take a closer look at the report “[*Inflation and affordability*](https://www.tellcityhall.ca/report.html?k=a:en:saas006672:MzU.KTH8j6hsiEVebU5rbBfq1nB0bnc)” to learn more about: - How Canadians of different income levels and provinces feel about the rise in consumer prices - How concerned are Canadians of different incomes, ages, and backgrounds are about mortgage rates rising and affording basic necessities this month - The connection between well-being and the ability to afford basic necessities MORE ABOUT THE SURVEY Building on the extensive research Advanis conducted during the pandemic via our [COVID-19 Tracker survey](https://www.tellcityhall.ca/surveys.html), we have continued asking Canadians questions on various topics since March 2022 in our new Omnibus survey offered through our Tell City Hall brand.
