“Bank Governor Mark Carney has long signaled the need to hike national borrowing costs in order to rein in economic activity and reduce inflationary pressures. But now, economists believe the central bank will hold rates steady at one per cent after Wednesday’s boost. TD is forecasting the bank’s rate at one per cent until at least the second quarter of 2011. The Bank of Montreal figures Canada’s one per cent interest to last even longer, until the July-to-September period in 2011.”
