The last of the G7 economies, Canada, should have benefited from high energy and commodity prices, but its GDP shrank in the first quarter, owing to the contracting US economy. Indeed, three quarters of Canada’s exports go to the US, while foreign demand accounts for a quarter of its GDP.
G7经济体的最后一个国家加拿大应该已经从能源和商品价格的高涨中获益，但是由于美国经济的收缩，其GDP在第一季度有所收缩。事实上，加拿大四分之三的出口是出口到美国，同时，外国需求占其GDP的四分之一。
