| Impact statement: There is a common belief that currency depreciation worsens the trade balance in the short run and improves it in the long run, resulting in the so-called J?curve phenomenon. Early studies employed aggregate data and provided mixed results. Recent studies, however, have employed disaggregated data to remove any aggregation bias from their analysis. In this article, we consider the Canadian experience and test the phenomenon between Canada and its 20 major trading partners. Using quarterly data and the bounds testing approach to cointegration and error?correction modelling, we were able to provide support for the J?curve in 11 out of 20 cases. | Collaboration: Partner University | Keywords: Canada, J Curve, Bilateral Trade Balance Modeling |
