At yesterday's session, BOC' Poloz made a speech before the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance in Ontario. He mainly concentrated on lower oil prices. He said, "Oil prices are an important component of Canada's terms of trade and one of the key drivers of movements in the Canadian dollar. Now, the fall in oil prices has set in motion complex dynamics, including sectorial and regional adjustments, which will take the time to work their way through the economy. The negative effects of lower oil prices hit some sectors of the economy right away."
