Governments publish the data. We collect it, score it, and grade every province, city, and MP — so you can see what you're actually getting for your tax loonie. All public sources. One place. No spin.
Why "duck"? The loon on Canada's dollar coin. Your loonie. Your duck. We track the bang you get for it.
How does your province spend your tax loonie? Healthcare wait times, housing starts, credit ratings, education outcomes — graded head to head.
What do you get for your property tax loonie? Safety, transit, housing affordability, infrastructure delivery — for every major metro area.
What has your MP delivered for your federal tax loonie? Investment, vote record, expenses, electoral health — across all 343 ridings.
Bang for Your Duck is free to access — always. No paywall. No ads. No partisan agenda. But data costs money: hosting, subscriptions, and hundreds of hours tracking down numbers that governments don't make easy to find. If you've ever shared it, argued about it, or used it to form an opinion — consider chipping in.
