Canada Consumer Price Index m/m shows the change in prices of a fixed basket of goods and services from the consumer perspective in the reported month compared to the previous month. The basket contains goods of unchanging quality and quantity, so the index purely measures changes in consumer prices.

The indicator is considered to be one of the measures of Canada's inflation. The indicator growth can have a positive effect on CAD quotes.
