Show Notes

Amidst growing economic concerns due to the Iran war, the Bank of Canada is expected to maintain interest rates, focusing on long-term risks rather than short-term oil shocks. Experts predict a possible quarter-point hike later this year, but most see it as unlikely given weak employment and core inflation nearing two percent. Meanwhile, Ottawa prepares for a spring fiscal update to check progress on spending plans and economic goals.
