The Bank of Canada's core inflation measures remained steady, with CPI-trim at 2.7% and CPI-median at 2.6%. The deceleration in headline inflation was primarily driven by lower travel tour prices and slower growth in mortgage interest costs, which rose 13.2% compared to 14.7% in October.
Food inflation moderated slightly to 2.6% from 2.7%, while gasoline prices declined 0.5%. Excluding food and energy, core prices increased 1.9%, down from 2.3% in October. This data comes as the BoC has already cut rates by 175 basis points since June, with Governor Macklem recently signaling a more gradual approach to future rate cuts.
