Bank of Canada Holds Rate at 2.25% — Third Hold of 2026.

Bank of Canada Holds Rate at 2.25% — Third Hold of 2026.

Inflation hit 2.4% in March and is expected to climb to ~3% in April, driven by higher gas prices linked to the Middle East conflict. It's forecast to ease back to the 2% target by early 2027.

Governor Tiff Macklem signaled that if the economy tracks expectations, any future rate moves will likely be small.

Next decision: June 10. What do you think happens next?
