Canada Economic Outlook: Economy stalls as hard landing inexorably grinds nearer
Date: Thursday 5 October 2023
Canada’s economy has now likely fallen into the recession that we have long been expecting. Growth stalled in two of the last three quarters and momentum entering Q3 was weak. Key imbalances – highly indebted households and overvalued house prices – can’t evade the coming full impact of the Bank of Canada’s aggressive hike in the policy rate. An imminent consumer pullback, combined with a deepening housing correction, will finally push the economy into recession.
