Dear @OC_Transpo thanks to the #7 bus driver at Bank and Slater who just refused to open his door at the red light 5 feet past the bus stop. Way to leave a woman stranded downtown at 8:40 pm. #dickmove

Claudio Borio outlines five key lessons from the past 25 years for monetary policy, their implications for central bankers and how they can be put into practice +Link to speech #BISAnnualEconReport bis.org/speeches/sp240…

@ForexLive Trading floors are not the only audience for BoC press conferences.

I invite you to visit every trading floor in Montreal -- I have -- you won't find a single word of french spoken or see a single word of french on a computer screen. Many languages are spoken in the world but only one is spoken in finance. The ECB doesn't use 10 languages because it's a needless risk of something getting lost in translation.

I'm a fluent French speaker but the Bank of Canada continuing to do press conferences in French in 2024 is stupid.

@ForexLive English and French are the official languages of Canadians, whom the Bank serves. The BoC always provides simultaneous interpretation so that no market participant needs to worry about missing something said in a language they don’t understand.

@jillvardy English is the language of finance. The ECB doesn't deliver every single press conference and speech in english for Ireland's sake.

The strike is over. The BCMEA and the ILWU have accepted the Terms of Settlement from federal mediators. The parties have reached a tentative agreement. Statement from Minister Alghabra & me:

Governor Tiff Macklem: “We’ve come a long way, and we don’t want to squander the progress we’ve made. We need to stay the course to restore price stability for Canadians.” bit.ly/3PX1uf1 #cdnecon
