Many Canadian offices are empty. It could be the economy’s ‘canary in the coal mine’

interest rates are putting stress on Canadian real estate — but it’s not just homeowners feeling the pinch.Experts are warning that Canada’s commercial real estate sector could be a “canary in the coal mine” for a steeper downturn in the economy as an uncertain return to the workplace leaves many office landlords in a precarious position.Much of the fears for commercial real estate — a sector that includes office towers, retail spaces, warehouses and production plants — stem from the United States and recent instability in the banking industry.First Republic, a regional bank that catered to a wealthy clientele, was the latest casualty of the instability that has seen shockwaves spread beyond the U.S. to global banking institutions.It was Charlie Munger, vice-president of Berkshire Hathaway and right-hand man to investment magnate Warren Buffett, who rang alarm bells over the weekend about the state of U.S.

Budget 2023 won’t fuel inflation, but misses the bigger economic picture: experts

federal budget won’t fuel inflation but may be missing the bigger economic picture as a recession looms and the country’s cost-of-living crisis continues to squeeze Canadians, experts say.The budget unveiled by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland on Tuesday promises to cut more than $15 billion in spending from the government’s books, but also abandons plans from the fall economic statement that projected a map to balanced budget. The federal deficit is projected to decrease by up to $14 billion in the downside scenario by 2027-28 from $43 billion.“If you look at the size of the deficit that they are projecting going forward, they’re not really adding materially to inflation relative to the path that we were already on,” said Craig Alexander, the former chief economist of Deloitte, in an interview with Mercedes Stephenson that aired Sunday on The West Block.
