However Dodge only grudgingly accepts the presence of housing prices in the current CPI, and he is grossly ignorant about the prices that are used, mistakenly believing they are based on Royal LePage indexes for existing homes, rather than on new housing price index data. His time as Governor of Bank of Canada corresponded to the period that saw Eurostat’s first three pilot projects for OOH(NA) series, which involved only EU countries. (Pace misinformation from the Poloz Bank of Canada, there were NEVER any Eurostat pilot projects involving only euro area countries. The fourth pilot project, which also took in Norway and Iceland, EEA members but not EU members, was in 2010-11, when Carney was Governor.) Yet when I questioned him about an OOH(NA) series for the BoC target indicator at the annual 2009 CEA meeting he was completely ignorant about them. He was also extremely rude, cutting me off when I attempted to inform him and our audience.
