    Quarterly Report 1
    December 2015
    Fall 2015

    In this Report, we provide updates on key economic indicators for Ontario, including: Gross Domestic Product (GDP), job growth, unemployment, inflation, and exports. The Ontario government was very active in Fall 2015, and we discuss how new policy initiatives - namely the new provincial pension program, Premier Wynne’s trade missions to China, the partial sell-off of Hydro One, and the recent infrastructure developments – will impact Ontario’s economy.
