Summary
The US Dollar to Canadian Dollar (USD/CAD) exchange rate has eased towards 1.4140 after the Canadian Dollar extended last week's gains following another resilient domestic labour market report. Scotiabank believes the May-June decline in the Canadian Dollar has now likely run its course, with improving economic data helping stabilise.
