<\/p>\nA new report predicts every Canadian province will see exports grow at various rates by the end of 2017.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Export Development Canada says that while some provinces may see a drop for 2016, they will all return to growth by the end of the following year.<\/p>\n
The Global Export Forecast predicts a favourable economic climate in the US will boost Canadian coffers, with Americans buying everything from French fries in Prince Edward Island to vehicles in Ontario.<\/p>\n
\u201cHigher US demand and a much weaker Canadian dollar are sparking Canadian sales in a large number of key industries,\u201d said Peter Hall, EDC\u2019s chief economist.<\/p>\n
\u201cCanadian exports will see more tangible benefits of our depreciated dollar starting immediately and continuing through the near-term period.\u201d<\/p>\n
PEI is set to lead the export growth, with a total gain of 13 per cent by the end of 2017. French fries, lobster and pharmaceuticals will be key products in the US and Asian markets, the report suggests.<\/p>\n
Nova Scotia, Quebec and Ontario are also set to see solid growth in both 2016 and 2017.<\/p>\n
Car tires and seafood are expected to drive Nova Scotia\u2019s advance, while the aerospace sector is key to Quebec and vehicles and parts in Ontario.<\/p>\n
