B.C. will weather economic downturn
VANCOUVER - As the United States economy spirals downward, Canada`s economy cannot help but follow suit. But British Columbia and its western neighbours will weather the storm much better than their eastern counterparts, according to a report by the Toronto-Dominion Bank.
Growth in Canada`s gross domestic product will drop to 1.1 per cent in 2008, the same growth predicted in the U.S. for the same period, the March issue of the TD Quarterly Economic Forecast reported. But the effects won`t be evenly distributed across the country.
