Marie Roussel

Marie Roussel is an economic writer based in Montreal, covering how fiscal policy, central-bank decisions, and labour-market shifts affect households across Canada. She began her career as a business reporter at a regional daily, then moved to national newsrooms where she specialized in personal finance explainers and public-policy analysis. Over the past decade, Marie has produced high-impact reporting on housing affordability, inflation dynamics, and the resilience of Canadian supply chains, often translating complex research into clear, data-driven narratives for general audiences. Her work has been recognized for rigorous sourcing and practical accountability—particularly stories that connect government budgets and interest-rate changes to real-world impacts like rent growth, wage trends, and consumer credit costs. Recently, she has expanded her beat to include climate and energy economics, focusing on how transition policies reshape employment and investment.
