The Bank of Canada has chosen to keep its key interest rate steady at 2.25%, pointing to ongoing economic recovery and concerns about inflation. With Canada’s GDP rising by 3.3% in the second quarter and unemployment dipping to 6.4% in July, there are clear signs of momentum in the market. For those navigating decisions in the Fraser Valley or Greater Vancouver real estate landscape, these economic indicators can influence everything from mortgage rates to market confidence. The Bank will revisit its stance on October 28, 2026, so it’s worth keeping an eye on how shifts in inflation and economic conditions may impact your next move.
