OTTAWA — Statistics Canada says the country’s merchandise trade deficit narrowed to $1.5 billion in October as exports improved and imports took a step back.
The agency says the shortfall was less than half the $3.4-billion deficit in September.
Economists had expected a deficit of $2.7 billion, according to Thomson Reuters.
