A credible framework for macroeconomic policy, strong policy response, and resilient financial system have enabled Canada to exit the global crisis on a strong footing. Executive Directors encouraged authorities to maintain their prudent and far-sighted policies while strengthening productivity and competitiveness.

They observed that Canada is well positioned to adapt its financial regulatory framework to emerging international initiatives. Further progress toward national securities regulation will be an essential enhancement in this framework.
