National disposable income was $2,727.0 billion, up from $2,634.6 billion in Q1 2025, reflecting higher net national income and a modest net current transfer to non‑residents. National net saving reached $138.9 billion, down from $157.0 billion in the same quarter a year earlier, and the national saving rate fell to 5.1 percent from 6.0 percent. Households contributed $1,811.9 billion to disposable income and $62.9 billion to saving, while corporations added $140.0 billion to income and $79.9 billion to saving. General governments accounted for $718.6 billion of income and $11.4 billion of saving. These figures provide a snapshot of Canada’s fiscal position and saving behavior in Q1 2026.
