At the same time, @ExportDevCanada's proprietary Canadian Economic Recovery Tracker, released monthly, showed significant progress as the third wave crested and public health measures eased. edc.ca/en/guide/edc-c…

ICYMI: We saw a wild surge in the confidence among Canadian exporters. "It's really telling us that everybody is arming themselves for what's coming in the second half of this year," @PeterGHallXIII says. reuters.com/business/canad…

- Demand is so high and capacity so limited that, even with the higher Canadian dollar, I believe the orders are going to be strong and the throughput is actually going to be quite resilient.

Some other points in the interview: - In normal times, a higher currency would hurt us, but these are extenuating circumstances. - A lot of the U.S. stimulus is going to consumers, and it’s up to them where to spend their money.

"My message to businesses: In spite of the increase in currency, please – please – do not fail to be ready for the demand that is coming our way." - @ExportDevCanada's chief economist, @PeterGHallXIII this afternoon on BNN. bnnbloomberg.ca/video/loonie-w… #economy #cdnecon

Early into the pandemic, the federal government expanded our mandate so all Canadian businesses – not only those exporting – could access the Crown corporation’s financial solutions. In part because of this, EDC served a record number of businesses in 2020 ⤵️ #cdnbiz #cdnecon

Let me put it on Twitter too cause this needs the attention

The recovery is buoyed by decreasing COVID cases in Canada, sustained strong performance in the financial markets. Transportation and mobility, consumer sentiment, and spending and employment remained more or less stable. edc.ca/en/guide/edc-c…

Recovery is trending up again, according to @ExportDevCanada's Canadian Economic Tracker. This month's release shows the country is almost back to fall levels, a modest improvement over last month.
