Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze the causes of inflation projected for Canada through out the 1980s, using CANDIDE Model 2.0 as reported in the 18th Annual Review base case. Our analysis suggests that, in the medium-run inflation is not only a monetary phenomenon but also caused by a host of other factors: external inflation, foreign interest rates, low productivity growth, labour market tightness, domestic energy pricing and indexation of wages to CPI, a measure of inflation that reflects both domestic and foreign price pressures.
