29.05.202612:30:00UTC+00Canada’s GDP Implicit Price Index Edges Up to 1.10% in Q1 2026

Canada’s GDP implicit price index rose to 1.10% in the first quarter of 2026 on a quarter-over-quarter basis, up slightly from 1.00% recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025. The data, updated on 29 May 2026, point to a modest acceleration in broad economy-wide price pressures at the start of the year.

The indicator, which tracks the overall change in prices for goods and services produced in the economy, suggests that pricing momentum has strengthened marginally compared with the previous quarter. The “actual” measure reflects the price change from Q4 2025 to Q1 2026, while the “previous” figure captures the movement from Q3 to Q4 2025.

Although the pickup is small, the move from 1.00% to 1.10% indicates that underlying price dynamics in Canada are continuing to firm on a quarter-over-quarter basis, and will likely be watched closely by policymakers and markets assessing the trajectory of inflationary pressures through 2026.
