TD said consumer spending gained momentum toward the end of 2024, supported by lower interest rates, which boosted consumer confidence, and external factors, such as the GST relief.
The TD survey uncovered Canadians' financial priorities in 2025, with 56 per cent of those surveyed indicating a main priority was their day-to-day expenses, down 3% from last year, saving and investing for the future (47 per cent) and paying down debt (30 per cent).
