BCA Podcasts The Brief: The Impact of Wages and Inflation on Canada’s Economy
Canadians are feeling the pinch from inflation and higher than normal interest rates, but what can they expect in the months ahead?
On this episode, we speak with Dominique Lapointe, Global Macro Strategist on the Multi-Asset Solutions Team at Manulife for a deep dive into Canada’s economy and how we are faring.
We discuss the Bank of Canada’s recent decision to hold interest rates, wage growth disparities between Alberta and the rest of the country, how businesses are faring in the current economic environment, and what Canadians should be paying attention to in the coming months.
