Ontario Premier Doug Ford Appeals to Bank of Canada for Standstill on Rate Increases

SpanglishNews Given the potential risk to Ontario's economy, Premier Doug Ford is requesting the Bank of Canada to reconsider its planned rate hikes.

He worries about the impact on auto manufacturing and real estate prices and suggests monetary policy should consider "the whole picture."
