Our governments’ finances face a growth problem, not just a budget problem.

Oil prices (WTI) ended March just under $102/bbl. Adjusted for inflation, that's the second largest monthly $/bbl increase ever and the third largest % increase. #cdnecon
CIBC: The #Canadianeconomy advanced by 0.1% m/m to start the year, a tick above the consensus expectation & advance estimate, driven by strength in #goods-producing #sectors, namely #oilandgas extraction, #mining/quarrying, and #construction, which masked a decline in #manufacturing #cdnecon #GDP

Should Canada sign an economic agreement with Morocco?
They have a free trade agreement with Europe, booming industries, well developped logistics and lots of ressources.

1) The economy lost 83,900 jobs in one month, and unemployment is now 6.7%. That matters more than a thousand political hot takes. People need housing, food, dignity, and stability, not another government that listens fastest to markets. #cdnpoli #CanLab #cdnecon
We have maintained our policy interest rate at 2.25%.

It’s time #JDVance become self-sufficient & stop relying on billionaire sugar daddies to fund his slimy shape-shifting persona & careers.
The Trump regime waged economic warfare on 🇨🇦 for a year now with malicious intent of causing #CdnEcon damage. We must ask why?
Friends don’t do that. #cdnpoli
What do rising oil prices mean for Canadian households?
In my latest for @TheHubCanada, I estimate the costs for gasoline, energy, and (just as importantly!) all other goods and services throughout the supply chain. Overall, about $1,000/yr/household.

Here's Canada's population growth rates since 1946. The 2020s have clearly been quite atypical, to say the least. #cdnecon
Statistics Canada released fourth quarter population estimates this morning. The total population continued to decrease (black line) due mostly to a net decline in the number of non-permanent residents. #cdnecon
2 Desjardins: Policymakers will generally look through an #oilpriceshock unless #inflationexpectations become unanchored, underlying #inflation reaccelerates or the #outputgap closes meaningfully. 🧵
#BOC #cdnecon
1 Desjardins: The Bank of Canada’s reaction function to higher #energyprices is also fairly clear. Even in a world where #centralbanks are more sensitive to supply shocks, the Governing Council retains substantial flexibility to remain patient. 🧵
