Caught in the middle of a political debate, we explore the contrasting narratives around Canada's economic growth. On one hand, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland shares an optimistic IMF report predicting that Canada's economy will grow the fastest in the G7 next year. On the other hand, a contrasting OECD report suggests Canada will have the lowest real GDP per capita growth in the OECD by 2030.
