Desjardins Leading Index (DLI) for Quebec's economy points to weak growth in the coming months. The DLI increased only by 0.2% in both April and March and by 0.3% in February, according to the data and the analysis published June 12.
Quebec Government Budget tabled June 4 is based on real GDP growth of 1.8% in 2014. It might be quite difficult to achieve. In the first two months of this year, Quebec GDP was 1.4 % higher than during the corresponding period of 2013, according to the Institut de la statistique du Québec.
