The Canadian Dollar gained a considerable amount of ground against its FX peers this past week. Canadian Dollar strength relative to the Euro and Yen stood out most prominently. EUR/CAD plunged 310-pips on balance while CAD/JPY jumped to its highest level since December 2018. USD/CAD price action also edged lower in spite of broad-based US Dollar strength.
