> Under the current government, business investment cratered, 40% of our 1% earners left and our GDP per capita relative to the US dropped by 40%.

With the assumption that this is true (I have no idea either way), has it made people more poor or worse off?

You tell me. Median household (+ individuals not in an economic family) income went up $5k from 2015-2024. Given what you've experienced inflation wise in that time period what do you think?

US median household income went up $15k in that time period ($22k CAD), so >4x more.
