According to a Survey by BNN Bloomberg, 53% of respondents said that they were concerned about rising mortgage payments at their next renewal.
The survey was released as the Bank of Canada continues its aggressive rate-hike campaign to bring inflation under control. On October 26th, the central bank increased its key overnight rate by 50 basis points, bringing the prime rate to 5.95%.
