Canadian Finance Minister Bill Morneau may release his fiscal update as early as next week, though a final decision hasn’t been made, a person familiar with the plans said.
One option under consideration is Oct. 25, though that conflicts with a Bank of Canada rate decision, according to the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because discussions are ongoing. Other dates next week are also possible, the person said, and Morneau may announce the date soon.
