Financial panorama, Investment and markets, NewsCanadian economy and job market remain resilientOn Wednesday, December 10, the Bank of Canada (BoC) decided to leave its policy rate unchanged at 2.25%. This decision was anticipated by the market, especially since the release of the latest labour market data on Friday, December 5, which showed job creation rather than job losses.
