Bank of Canada maintains overnight rate. Your variable rate mortgage remains unchanged. The Bank is ending quantitative easing (QE) and moving into the reinvestment phase, during which it will purchase Government of Canada bonds solely to replace maturing bonds.

Recovery estimated ‘sometime in the middle quarters of 2022’.
