Canada has successfully navigated major economic shocks in recent years. However, it faces significant headwinds from the trade conflict with the United States. Looking ahead, it is crucial for Canada to strengthen its long-term growth potential. In this context, the OECD Economic Survey of Canada discusses the macroeconomic outlook and policy challenges, balancing short-term support with further improvements in medium-term resilience. It also provides an in-depth review of Canada’s historically low productivity performance and outlines policies to boost business productivity. Further structural topics addressed in the Survey include policies to enhance housing affordability and strategies to prepare Canada for adapting to climate change.

Álvaro Pereira, OECD Chief Economist will present the findings of the Survey. For those joining the event in person, light pastries and coffee will be served.
