Mark Carney: The coming thaw Remarks by Mr Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of Canada, to the Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce, Winnipeg, Manitoba, 4 February 2010. *  *  *  It is a pleasure to be here in Winnipeg. Today, I intend to elaborate on elements of the Bank of Canada’s economic outlook.
After putting the recession in context and offering the Bank’s perspective on the shape of the recovery, my remarks will focus on Canada’s corporate sector. A focus on business is appropriate in Manitoba. This province is not only the geographic centre of our country, but also mirrors Canada’s economic diversity.
