The Bank of Canada has now held rates steady since October 2025.
Todayâs announcement keeps the overnight rate at 2.25% and prime at 4.45%, signalling that the Bank remains comfortable waiting for more clarity before making its next move.
The economy is growing...slowly. Inflation is being pushed higher by energy prices. Housing activity is stabilizing. And many Canadians are navigating mortgage renewals in a very different environment than when they first secured their mortgage.
The second half of 2026 wonât be about timing the market perfectly. It will be about having a plan.
Whether youâre considering a move, approaching renewal, or wondering if refinancing makes sense, understanding your options today can help you make more confident decisions tomorrow.
