Canada doesn't have to raise rates just because another country does... Raising rates with food inflation can increase cost for Ag producers and make it worse...

Drain the system just as fast as they put it in and same manner as adding and there is definitely no need to raise any interest rates... It is aimed at taking folk's minds of what created the problem and who... So we watch...LJ
