Abstract. In connection with the development of society, and especially its liberalization in Western countries, differences in the standard of living of the population of different strata, age, and gender groups are being reduced. However, even in conditions of rising human living standards and scientific and technological progress, socioeconomic differentiation between categories of people may still remain. The purpose of this work was to identify and determine trends in the standard of living of citizens in Canada over the past twenty years. In this regard, the work carried out a study of the income of the Canadian population in 2000–2021 in gender and age differentiation; the main trends in changes in personal income in the period under review were studied. As a result of the analysis, a significant excess of the personal income of men over the personal income of women was revealed, which decreased in the analyzed period but did not completely disappear. According to our forecasts, this difference will occur in the near future due to the presence of a higher level of pay for traditionally “male” labor. With global external liberalization in the country, traditional relations remain strong, on which economic relations are also built. The age differentiation of citizens’ incomes reflected the higher value of experience than the psychophysical properties of a person (youth, ambition, etc.). In addition, noticeable social support from the state for vulnerable segments of the population was revealed.

Key words: average annual income per capita, age and gender differentiation, state social support, gender discrimination, traditionally male and female professions, professional experience and qualifications.
