Inflation slows sharply to 1.7% in April as consumer carbon price ends The end of the consumer carbon price at the start of April drove inflation down sharply, Statistics Canada said Tuesday, but there were signs of pressure building at the grocery store.

The annual pace of inflation cooled to 1.7 per cent last month, down from 2.3 per cent in March, the agency said. That’s a little higher than the 1.6 per cent expected by a poll of economists. #StatsCanada #Canada

Canada is doing what it should have done decades ago. Instead of reinvesting in US-Canada trade, diversifying is safer, more sustainable, and equitable and NOT subject to such political interference. Canada’s trade in March recovered surprisingly well from the 6.6% reduction in trade. #StatsCanada

Canada has made a sharp positive turn to adapt to 🇺🇸-🇨🇦 trade war.

#StatsCanada reports in March, 🇨🇦 exports to USA. ⬇️ 6.6%.

But this is offset with 24.8% surge in exports #overseas trade. This is the second largest increase on record in #Canada.
