Definition:

Market Basket Measure (MBM) is Canada's

Official Poverty Line. The MBM is a measure

of low income which is based on the cost of a basket of goods and services that individuals and families require to meet their basic needs and achieve a modest standard of living.

Wherever individuals and families are living

across the country, if they cannot afford the cost of this basket of goods and services in their particular community, they will be considered to be living below Canada's

Official Poverty Line.

There are two other common measures of

low-income status (Low Income Measures and Low Income Cut-Offs), which present slightly different results than the MBM. $141,858 $113,541 $107,906$134,700 $123,136$132,864$130,759 $117,324 $53,236 North DumfriesCambridge KitchenerWaterlooWellesleyWilmot WoolwichWaterloo
