Inflation rate only 1.7 % in Canada

There is further evidence that the Bank of Canada has probably acted unwisely when it raised interest rates recently. the official overall inflation rate has risen only 1.7 % as of August. this is less than expected and below the Bank of Canada's target rate of 2 %.Once we deduct energy and foodstuffs out of the calculation the rate is even less.
