GDP unchanged in July

Canada's economy was essentially unchanged in July, Statistics Canada says, as a slowdown in the mining, and oil and gas industries was offset by an uptick in manufacturing and the public sector.

The flat showing was the first month without growth since the start of the year, the data agency said.

The mining, and oil and gas industry shrank by 1.5%. Manufacturing expanded by 1% and the public sector by 0.5%.
