| Insurance sales banned on bank websites |
Finance Minister Jim Flaherty says federally regulated Canadian banks and trust companies will be banned from using their websites to promote insurance that can't be sold through their regular branch offices.
Jim Flaherty says the so-called non-authorized insurance products will include life, property and casualty insurance.
Banks are already prohibited from advertising the non-authorized insurance products in their regular branch offices, although they are allowed to set up separate locations to sell that type of insurance.

| Bank of Canada maintains overnight rate target |
Bank of Canada maintains overnight rate target at
1/4 per cent and reiterates conditional commitment to hold current policy rate until the end of the second quarter of 2010
OTTAWA – The Bank of Canada today announced that it is maintaining its target for the
overnight rate at 1/4 per cent. The Bank Rate is unchanged at 1/2 per cent and the deposit
rate is 1/4 per cent.
While significant fragilities remain, global economic developments have been slightly
more positive and the global outlook has improved modestly relative to the Bank's projection in its October Monetary Policy Report (MPR).
In Canada, as expected, the composition of aggregate demand is shifting towards final domestic demand and away from net exports. In the third quarter, the balance of these shifts resulted in weaker-than-projected GDP growth. Core inflation in recent months has been slightly higher than the Bank had projected, although total CPI inflation remains
close to projections.

| Bank of Canada Rates |
For the second time, the Bank of Canada has decided to leave interest rates alone. The Prime rates still stands at 6.00% (The central bank maintained its benchmark rate at 4.25 per cent). Noting indications of a slowing US housing market and a stable Canadian economy, the Bank appears comfortable with current rates. The next announcement date is October 17, 2006.
Bond prices have risen over the last few weeks, in reaction to news that some areas of the North American economy are cooling-off. This trend is sending fixed mortgage rates slightly lower. For more in-depth information please contact your financial advisor or financial planner.

| Bank of Canada keeps target for the overnight rate at 4 1/4 per cent |
OTTAWA—The Bank of Canada today announced that it is maintaining its target for the overnight rate at 4 1/4 per cent. The operating band for the overnight rate is unchanged, and the Bank Rate remains at 4 1/2 per cent.
Overall, the outlook for economic growth and inflation in Canada is largely unchanged from the April Monetary Policy Report (MPR).
The global economic expansion remains robust. Growth in Canada in the first half of 2006 appears to have been a little stronger and the Canadian dollar has traded in a somewhat higher range than was envisaged in the April MPR. As well, there was a further shift in the composition of demand towards consumption and away from exports. Total CPI inflation has remained above the 2 per cent target, mainly because of increases in consumer energy prices, while core inflation moved up to 2 per cent slightly sooner than expected. All factors considered, the Canadian economy is currently judged to be operating just above its production capacity.

| Bank of Canada raises overnight rate target by 1/4 percentage point to 4 1/4 per |
OTTAWA—The Bank of Canada today announced that it is raising its target for the overnight rate by one-quarter of one percentage point to 4 1/4 per cent. The operating band for the overnight rate is correspondingly increased, and the Bank Rate is now 4 1/2 per cent.
The strong momentum in the global and Canadian economies has continued, although there has recently been an increased degree of volatility in commodity markets, foreign exchange markets, and financial markets more generally. Recent Canadian data confirm that domestic demand remains solid, and that both CPI and core inflation are evolving largely in line with the Bank's expectations.

| Bank of Canada raises overnight rate target by 1/4 percentage point to 4 per cen |
OTTAWA—The Bank of Canada today announced that it is raising its target for the overnight rate by one-quarter of one percentage point to 4 per cent. The operating band for the overnight rate is correspondingly increased, and the Bank Rate is now 4 1/4 per cent.
The global economy has been growing at a robust pace, exhibiting a little more momentum than had been anticipated. This global strength and the associated higher prices of many commodities, together with strong domestic demand in Canada, have produced solid growth in the Canadian economy at a pace consistent with the Bank's outlook in the January Monetary Policy Report Update. At the same time, global competition and the past appreciation of the Canadian dollar continue to pose challenges for a number of sectors of the economy. All factors considered, the Canadian economy is judged to be operating at, or just above, its production capacity.

| Bank of Canada raises overnight rate again |
OTTAWA — The Bank of Canada today announced that it is raising its target for the overnight rate by one-quarter of one percentage point to 3 1/4 per cent. The operating band for the overnight rate is correspondingly increased, and the Bank Rate is now 3 1/2 per cent.
Information received since the October Monetary Policy Report (MPR) indicates that the Canadian and global economies have been evolving largely in line with the Bank's expectations. In Canada, despite somewhat stronger than expected output growth in the third quarter, the Bank expects the level of economic activity at the end of 2005 to be about as projected in the MPR. Total CPI inflation, at 2.6 per cent in October, has come down more quickly than expected, primarily reflecting a rapid decline in gasoline prices. Core inflation, at 1.7 per cent in October, is in line with the Bank's projection. Overall, the Bank's outlook for the economy and inflation through 2006 and 2007 is broadly unchanged from October.

| Federal Reserve Board raised its benchmark lending rate to 4.0 per cent |
The Federal Open Market Committee decided today to raise its target for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to 4 percent.
The increase was the Fed's 12th quarter-point increase since June 2004 — and lifts the benchmark rate to its highest level since June 2001 — as the central bank struggles to moderate growth in the world's largest economy.
Elevated energy prices and hurricane-related disruptions in economic activity have temporarily depressed output and employment. However, monetary policy accommodation, coupled with robust underlying growth in productivity, is providing ongoing support to economic activity that will likely be augmented by planned rebuilding in the hurricane-affected areas. The cumulative rise in energy and other costs has the potential to add to inflation pressures; however, core inflation has been relatively low in recent months and longer-term inflation expectations remain contained.
The Committee perceives that, with appropriate monetary policy action, the upside and downside risks to the attainment of both sustainable growth and price stability should be kept roughly equal. With underlying inflation expected to be contained, the Committee believes that policy accommodation can be removed at a pace that is likely to be measured. Nonetheless, the Committee will respond to changes in economic prospects as needed to fulfill its obligation to maintain price stability.
