5 Things to Know Today – June 8, 2026

  The Bank of Canada's big moment arrives in 48 hours. Here's everything moving your money this Monday morning — from an OPEC+ output hike to a loonie struggling to keep pace with oil. Bank of Canada 1 The Rate Decision Is Two Days Away — And Economists Expect a Hold The Bank of Canada announces its overnight rate decision this Wednesday, June 10, at 9:45 a.m. ET, with a press conference from Governor Tiff Macklem to follow at 10:30 a.m. The rate currently sits at 2.25%, and the overwhelming consensus is that it stays there. Economists at TD, CIBC, National Bank and Desjardins all point to the same impossible bind: a technical recession and softening labour market would normally call for a cut, but oil-driven inflation — sitting above the Bank's 2% target — makes easing difficult to justify. Adding to the uncertainty, U.S. CPI data for May drops the same morning, which could shift bond markets mid-session. Wednesday is a big day for your mortgage rate outlook. Watch this sp...

Your daily horoscope: April 2, 2025

 

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

You may be confident that you have what it takes to succeed at a difficult task but others appear to be less than convinced. What can you do to prove to them that you are the real deal? Do it quickly before they lose interest.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

No matter how good an idea that pops into your head out of nowhere may be you are advised to keep it to yourself for the time being. Your rivals are not above stealing your insights and inventions, so it will pay you to be a bit secretive.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

If you approach what occurs today with a cool and rational mind then it won’t be such a big deal. While others are running this way and that in total panic you will be working out what needs to be done. Why make yourself sick with anxiety?

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Some of your plans may seem a bit far out to friends and family members but to you they make perfect sense and you have no intention of changing them just to make others feel comfortable. Their world needs shaking up.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

You need to be aware that your thoughts cannot be totally trusted at the moment. In fact, while mind planet Mercury continues on its retrograde path you would be wise to check and double check every idea you have. It’s possible you could be wrong.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

The more advice you get from partners and colleagues the more inclined you will be to ignore it all and you are right to do so. Only one person in the world knows what is best for you and that is the person you see in the mirror.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

You may feel that you need to prove yourself to colleagues and employers but you are wrong. They are well aware of who you are and what you are capable of, so don’t waste time and energy putting on a completely unnecessary show.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

You have overlooked a small but important detail and need to retrace your footsteps so you can find out what it is. If you ignore it in the hope that it won’t really matter it may matter more than anything else in a few days time.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

Listen to what your inner voice is telling you today and don’t be afraid to act on its advice. Also, be open to a loved one’s body language as they may want you to know something for which they can’t seem to find the right words.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

Usually you are pretty good at reading between the lines but for some reason this talent seems to have deserted you and you clearly don’t have the first idea what is going on. Maybe that’s not a bad thing. Maybe, on this occasion, ignorance is bliss.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

If a friend or colleague you usually trust makes what sounds like a reasonable suggestion today then let them know you are interested but refuse to commit yourself. The planets warn they may actually have no idea what they are talking about.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

Honesty is a must over the next 24 hours, especially when dealing with people on whom you know you will have to depend in the near future. If they find out later on that you have kept the truth from them they won’t be too pleased.
