Over'the past week or so, :the bus iness of Canada's governrrrent has been carried on: under the shadow of two ma jor economic trends that affect. every Canadian closely and: coiour. every debate in the .House'of Commons. These two trends are, continuing' inflation .and the steady increase.:in. government spending and hence, • the •steady" increase in taxation. The first 'inflation ' is must clearly revealed .by rising interest rates. A week ago Friday, the Bank of Canada raised its•rate from 61/2°j of to ?%a: This rate is•the.rate at which the central bank .lends money y to Canada's chattered banks and. is the prime indicator of our national money market . The sharp increase 'in this basic rate of inter est 'indicates that inflationo is still vety• much• a factor in the Canad -, ran econorxr.y and: could continue to grow unless-measures'are taken to discourage .boirowing Such an increase in the• Bank of Canada rate,•is usually followed,'by a matching increase in the rate at which the,,chartered bank$. lerld, money to their customers.; SO, you., can expect: ail increase in the. cost of -any money 'you borrow from''your • bank, very shortly. .'
