Canada’s economy didn’t grow at all last quarter and shrank in December, new GDP numbers show

Statistics Canada reported Tuesday that Canada’s economy didn’t grow at all in the last quarter of 2022, and actually shrank in December.

The three-month slowdown brought an end to five consecutive quarters of growth, and was mostly caused by less spending by businesses and households on various types of investments.

In December, Canada’s total economic output declined by 0.1 per cent from November’s level.
