The Bank of Canada’s future interest rate decisions will be “more data-dependent,” says the Bank of Canada’s Deputy Governor Sharon Kozicki, following a key interest rate hike of another half percentage point on Thursday.

“We’re starting to see signs that our past tightenings have taken action and we’ve already taken a lot of actions ourselves in raising the interest rate,” said Kozicki at a press conference in Montreal on Dec. 8.
