This is a market about the variation of consumer prices over the 12-month period ending December 2026 in Canada, before seasonal adjustment, as reported by Statistics Canada. This market will resolve according to the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) over the 12-month period ending December 2026 according to the monthly Statistics Canada report. The resolution source for this market will be the Statistics Canada Consumer Price Index monthly report released for December 2026 (https://www.statcan.gc.ca/en/start), currently scheduled to be released on January 18, 2027. Resolution of this market will take place upon release of the aforementioned data. If no data for the specified month is released by the date the next month's data is scheduled to be released, this market will resolve based on data from the last available month. Once available, you can find this report by clicking on the "Major Economic Indicators" heading on the home page of https://www.statcan.gc.ca/en/start and selecting the “Consumer Price Index” report for the relevant month. The relevant figure can be found in “Table 1” under the "% change" column for the relevant month and year compared to the same month of the previous year. Note: the resolution source for this market will be the official monthly Statistics Canada CPI news release which reports inflation change over 12-month periods to only one decimal point (e.g. 1.9%). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. For the full release schedule, see: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/dai-quo/cal1-eng.htm?sk=3665Bank of Canada monetary policy remains anchored around the 2% inflation target, with recent communications and economic data releases supporting market-implied odds favoring the 2.5–2.9% range for 2026 annual CPI at 39.9%. Cooling labor market conditions, subdued wage growth, and declining commodity price pressures have reinforced expectations for gradual disinflation from prior peaks, though persistent shelter costs and global supply factors introduce upside risks priced into the 3.0–3.4% and 3.5–3.9% brackets. Traders view the 2.0–2.4% band as a plausible baseline scenario given current policy rates and forward guidance, while lower outcomes below 2.0% reflect limited downside momentum absent sharper economic contraction. Key upcoming catalysts include the next CPI print and any FOMC-aligned global rate signals that could shift the implied path.
