Canada’s export sector saw a pullback at the start of 2026, with total exports easing to 62.48 billion dollars in January 2026, down from 65.63 billion dollars recorded in December 2025.
The latest figures, updated on 12 March 2026, indicate a moderation in export activity following a stronger year-end performance. While December 2025 marked a higher benchmark, the January 2026 data suggest a softer opening to the year for Canada’s external sector.
Analysts and market participants will be watching upcoming releases closely to determine whether January’s decline reflects temporary volatility around the turn of the year or the beginning of a more sustained cooling in Canada’s export momentum.
