Provincial Five-Year Outlook

Provincial Economies at a Turning Point

Provincial economies have shown notable resilience this year. Labour markets have stabilized after early-year volatility, with employment gains concentrated in the Prairies and in Newfoundland and Labrador. Despite ongoing trade disruptions with the United States and China, consumer spending has held up, behind good income growth and high savings from past years.

Treading Water

Provincial economies appear to have performed better than anticipated during the first half of the year. Export growth was particularly strong in the first quarter, as U.S. firms boosted inventories in anticipation of potential tariffs. Consumers also maintained a relatively healthy pace of spending despite growing economic uncertainty, supported by still solid wage growth and stronger than expected job gains in a few provinces.
