Jessica Robinson

Jessica Robinson is a Canadian economic writer who has spent more than a decade covering how monetary policy, housing markets, and trade dynamics shape everyday life. She began her career at a Winnipeg newsroom, moving quickly from covering business beats to explaining complex economic data for general readers. Over the years, she has contributed to national reporting on inflation trends, labour-market shifts, and the economics of energy transition, with reporting that blends interviews, government documents, and transparent data analysis. Her work is known for clearly translating central-bank communications and budget measures into practical implications for households and businesses. Jessica later specialized in forecasting and risk analysis, collaborating with economists and industry sources to assess scenarios ranging from supply-chain disruptions to regional housing affordability. She now leads long-form explainers and regularly appears in editorial briefings, helping teams sharpen coverage of emerging economic risks across Canada’s provinces.
