Conclusion I promised at the outset not to take advantage of this being the longest day of the year. So, allow me to conclude with three key points.

Our monetary policy framework is helping the Canadian economy to absorb external shocks and to adjust to changing circumstances. Second, sound domestic policies are central to maximizing the benefits of globalization, while minimizing the risks.
