🚨 The Bank of Canada just raised its policy rate by 0.25%, to 2.50%. First hike since 2023, with the Bank pointing at inflation stuck around 3% on high energy prices.
If you hold a variable rate mortgage or a HELOC, your cost follows prime, expected to move from 4.45% to 4.70%. That works out to roughly $13 more a month for every $100,000 owing.
