Dion, Laurence, and Zheng discuss the influences that have affected Canada's international trade over the past two years, including exchange rate movements, global and sector-specific shocks, constraints on the domestic supply of a few products, and competition from emerging economies, most notably, China. The analysis is complemented with econometric models developed at the Bank which provide statistically valid estimates of the contribution of the Canadian-dollar appreciation to the recent developments in exports and imports.</description> <dc:date>2005-10-25T14:21:45+00:00</dc:date> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <cb:news rdf:parseType="Resource"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.cbwiki.net/wiki/index.php/RSS-CB_1.2_RDF_Schema#Announcement"/> <cb:simpleTitle>Exports, Imports, and the Appreciation of the Canadian Dollar</cb:simpleTitle> <cb:occurrenceDate>2005-10-25</cb:occurrenceDate> </cb:news> </item> <item rdf:about="https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/mair.pdf"> <title>How the Appreciation of the Canadian Dollar Has Affected Canadian Firms: Evidence from the Bank of Canada Business Outlook Survey</title> <link>https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/mair.pdf</link> <description>To track how firms were affected by the appreciation of the Canadian dollar in 2003 and 2004 and the steps they took in response, the Bank included supplementary questions in the quarterly Business Outlook Survey conducted by its regional offices. About half of the firms surveyed reported being adversely affected, one-quarter experienced a favourable impact, and the remainder reported no effect. Jean Mair classifies and summarizes the firms' responses, identifying the sectors that were most and least affected. Causes of the impacts are identified, as well as the actions firms took as a result of the appreciation. The article looks at these actions over time to see what they tell us about firms' adjustment process.</description> <dc:date>2005-10-22T14:44:17+00:00</dc:date> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <cb:news rdf:parseType="Resource"> <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://www.cbwiki.net/wiki/index.php/RSS-CB_1.2_RDF_Schema#Announcement"/> <cb:simpleTitle>How the Appreciation of the Canadian Dollar Has Affected Canadian Firms: Evidence from the Bank of Canada Business Outlook Survey</cb:simpleTitle> <cb:occurrenceDate>2005-10-22</cb:occurrenceDate> </cb:news> </item> </rdf:RDF>
