And how is that working out for Canada - one of the few countries to currently be in recession?

Statistics Canada said real gross domestic product fell 0.1 per cent on an annualized basis in the first three months of this year. That comes after a downwardly revised contraction of one per cent in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Two consecutive quarters of contraction in economic growth is termed a technical recession.
