Global Debt Crisis: Montreal Business

Opinion Canada Dept: What you may not know is that in spite of this, Canada is one of the more fortunate countries on Earth in terms of its prosperity and future prospects, according to Montreal Gazette. "In my opinion, Canada will continue to be a global growth leader," said Cooper, citing a long list of growth opportunities, from investment inflows to improved competitiveness and the bad news you already know. Canada faces a slow slog economically for the next couple of years, maybe longer, as it fights the headwinds generated by a stubborn global debt crisis. This argument comes from Sherry Cooper, chief economist of the BMO Financial Group - better known as the Bank of Montreal - and she laid out her case persuasively yesterday to a Montreal business group.
