Summary

Following a growth year of 1.6 percent, the Canadian economy has contracted due to measures to contain the virus. The economic outlook is exasperated by oil declines and trade uncertainty. While COVID-19 growth appears to be slowing in Canada, new figures from the World Health Organization show that the number of cases worldwide is growing rapidly.

Join us for a Politics & Policy webinar that will dive into the outlook on trade disruptions, fallen equity prices, emerging pandemic policy with essential insights on Canadian commodities markets and key economic developments, against the backdrop of the global pandemic.
