In our class we talked about impacts of COVID on the Canadian economy. by referring to the class discussion explain possible impacts of COVID on AD and SRAS and appropriate polices for dealing with the problem.
Canadian economy is moving to recession due to the outbreak of
corona virus. The GDP rte fell down to 2.6 percent. Almost fifth of
the population avail an emergency fund which established by the
government to counter the adverse economic impact due to this
outbreak. There are several programmes were implemented to raise
the recession path to a normal one. The interest rates were cut
down by efficient fiscal intervention. This lowering rate was also
due to increasing money supply in the economy. This helps the
businessman to increase their activities, which will not help the
maintenance of normal investment needs and economic activities. The
increasing level of lockdown restrictions leads to decreasing level
of the economic balances. The policies taken to maintain the
economic stability, but there is high level of uncertainty prevail
among the authority.
In every economy there is uncertainty among the policy makers about
the end of this corona outbreak. This affects the future economic
growth and the economic policies. This uncertainty shatters the
growth rate and future investment. The production process fall down
with respect to the fall in investment. This will reduce the demand
and supply in the market. Canadian economy tried to maintain their
stability through different programmes, but not anyone will give
proper results. So the economy again and again moving towards
recession.
