“We felt it was necessary,” said Bank of Canada Deputy Governor Paul Beaudry on Thursday regarding the 25 basis points rate hike announced on Wednesday. He added that strong household spending and high inflation led to the hike.

Beaudry will speak at the Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce in a few minutes and will answer questions from reporters.

In his economic progress report, entitled ‘Are We Entering a New Era of Higher Interest Rates?,’ Beaudry argued that a base-case scenario ‘where the real neutral rate remains broadly in its pre-pandemic range is possible, but the risks appear mostly tilted to the upside.’

Key takeaways from the speech:

Beaudry’s comments had no significant impact on the Loonie. The USD/CAD continued to trade steadu around 1.3350/55, modestly lower for the day.
