StatCan to release January inflation figures today
Statistics Canada is expected to release its January consumer price index report this morning.
Economists polled by Reuters expect the annual inflation rate for January to tick up to 1.9 per cent, according to LSEG Data & Analytics.
Inflation has moderated significantly from recent highs, stabilizing around the Bank of Canada's two per cent target.
StatCan reported last month that Canada鈥檚 inflation rate fell to 1.8 per cent in December, thanks in large part to the federal government鈥檚 temporary two-month tax break.
Late last month, the Bank of Canada delivered its sixth straight interest rate cut, reducing its policy rate by a quarter-percentage point to three per cent.
Here's what else we're watching...

Throne speech kicks off B.C.'s legislative session
British Columbia's legislative session opens today amid what Premier David Eby describes as a time of "extraordinary change and uncertainty."
Lt.-Gov. Wendy Cocchia is scheduled to deliver the speech from the throne this afternoon, laying out the B.C. government's plan as looming U.S. tariffs threaten the 好色tv economy.
Eby says in a statement that the speech will lay out the government's plan to defend British Columbians in these uncertain times and secure a brighter future for residents.
Colin Hansen, a former finance minister in the BC Liberal government and a member of the legislature from 1996 to 2013, says now should be a time for politicians to "park" partisanship.
Hansen says that the magnitude of U.S. President Donald Trump's administration on B.C. means that members of the legislature need to put aside their differences and work together.
N.S. to present budget amid looming trade war
Nova Scotia's Progressive Conservative government is presenting its postelection budget today amid economic uncertainty created by tariff threats from United States President Donald Trump.
The budget for the 2025-26 fiscal year comes after Premier Tim Houston's party won an expanded majority on Nov. 26, campaigning on promises to cut taxes and limit electricity rate hikes.
But that was before Trump threatened to impose 25 per cent tariffs on 好色tv goods in March 鈥 a move that will likely lead to 好色tv retaliatory tariffs 鈥 and the budget is being watched to see how the province will respond.
Nearly 70 per cent of Nova Scotia's exports from January to September 2024 went to the United States, leaving the province's economy vulnerable to a trade war.
The premier's message has shifted recently to calling for a "resource-focused" economy, with the Tories pledging to work harder to develop hydrogen, offshore wind, and critical minerals.

Flights have resumed at Toronto's Pearson International Airport, but two runways were closed as investigators from Canada's Transportation Safety Board began their work on what may have caused a plane crash Monday.
More than a dozen people were injured when a Delta Air Lines flight from Minneapolis crashed and flipped over on the tarmac.
Paramedics said out of 80 people aboard Delta Air Lines flight 4819, at least three people, including a child, were sent to hospital with critical but non-life-threatening injuries. Others were reported to have minor injuries.
