Consumer confidence in Canada is holding steady.
The latest survey conducted by TNS suggests Canadians feel the same way about their economic future today as they did a month ago.
“It looks like Canadians have tuned out for now” said Norman Baillie-David, Vice President of TNS in Canada and director of the marketing and social research firm’s monthly tracking study. “Consumer confidence hasn’t budged in a month, largely because the economy has taken a back seat in the headlines to Robocalls, the Michael Rafferty trial, and to a lesser extent, Syria and the Middle East. In fact, there hasn’t been any dramatic news about the economy, and the result is that Canadians’ confidence hasn’t changed in a month.”
Baillie-David says their Buy Index also remained unchanged last month.
