Canadian Consumer Debt Reaches Record $2.64 Trillion as Financial Realities Differ Across Households

Balances rose across auto loans, lines of credit, personal loans and credit cards as TransUnion said serious delinquency stayed concentrated in higher-risk borrowers.

Summary
Canadian consumer debt hit a record $2.64 trillion in the second quarter of 2026 as debt levels grew faster than the number of Canadians using credit, as existing borrowers carried larger balances than a year earlier, according to TransUnion’s Q2 2026 Credit Industry Insights Report (CIIR).
