An overview of recent macroeconomic developments in Canada

This presentation focuses on changes in the Canadian economic data subsequent to the 2008-09 recession, and emphasizes recent developments through the first two quarters of 2014. The material in the presentation is organized around three broad themes: (1) output and jobs, (2) wealth in the household sector, and (3) international trade. Graphical information is based on seasonally adjusted data available in CANSIM on September 30, 2014.

This presentation complements the September release of Recent Developments in Canada’s Economy: Fall 2014, a semi-annual article that provides an integrated summary of recent changes in output, employment, household demand, international trade and prices.
