Statistics Canada's June merchandise trade data showed a C$3.6 billion monthly trade deficit, the fifth consecutive deficit. Total exports fell 4.3% in June, while wheat export values hit a 16-month high and canola export values were the second-lowest in eight months.
Canadian soybean exports were at a record pace for 2016/17.
Strong wheat and soybean export pace supports demand for Canadian supplies. The weaker canola export value reflects softer canola demand in the period.
