Consumer Price Index (Canada) the Canada inflation report

When is the next Canada inflation report?

The Statistics Canada calendar puts the next Consumer Price Index (Canada), the Canada inflation report, at 8:30 AM EDT on Monday, Aug 17, 2026. Every one of the 8 dated entries lands at 8:30 AM Eastern, on a monthly interval, across the run from Aug 17, 2026 to Mar 15, 2027.

Statistics Canada states these release dates in the machine-readable calendar behind its key economic indicators page, and each was cross-checked against the agency annual release-date document and its own table metadata. The agency states one clock for everything it publishes rather than a time per release: The Daily is released Monday to Friday at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time, except during holidays.

What it measures

Consumer Price Index (Canada), in one paragraph

The Canadian Consumer Price Index measures the change in prices Canadian households pay for a fixed basket of goods and services. It is the index Canadian inflation is quoted in and the one the Bank of Canada writes its target against.

What JMM reads first

Read the Bank of Canada preferred core measures, trim and median, alongside the headline. Shelter carries a heavy weight in the Canadian basket and mortgage interest cost sits inside it, which means a rate increase can push measured inflation up through the very channel meant to bring it down.
