This input from the public, along with consultations held with diverse groups representing consumers, labour, businesses, Indigenous communities, civil society and academics, will inform the Bank’s thinking on the best monetary policy framework for Canada. The plan is to publish a report in the coming months summarizing what we’ve heard.
Today, we want to hear your comments and advice so we can make sure the evidence we bring to bear on the final decisions is robust and thorough. Before we begin the day, I’d like to reflect on early impressions of how well our current monetary policy framework has served us during the pandemic.
