To shock or not
10 interest hikes and a 1,900% increase in the Bank of Canada rate, with mortgage prices swelling by a factor of four, the Canadian economy is flatlining. Like, not growing. In fact it might have slipped a tad in Q3, which means we might be – maybe, perhaps, but only gently – in a technical recession.

Aren't they just wonderful! Her add to post is interesting. I have a son working on a pipeline in B.C. that was approved many years ago that I hadn't heard of as it never makes the news. Previously he worked on Trans Mountain which was major news daily.
