Samantha Wilson

Samantha Wilson is an economic writer based in Toronto who covers how monetary policy, inflation, and household finance play out in everyday life. She began her journalism career at a regional business desk in Atlantic Canada, reporting on energy costs, credit conditions, and municipal budgets before moving to national coverage. Over the past decade, Samantha has written daily explainers during major economic inflection points, including rate-hike cycles, housing-policy shifts, and labor-market turns. Her work is known for translating complex data into clear narratives for non-specialists, while still grounding every claim in primary sources such as Statistics Canada, central-bank statements, and federal budget documents. Samantha has contributed data-driven pieces that won internal recognition for clarity and accuracy, and she continues to develop coverage that connects trade, productivity, and financial regulation to Canadians’ long-term economic outlook. Her reporting blends strong editorial discipline with a practical focus on what changes—rates, rents, wages—means for real households.
