OTTAWA, July 15 (Xinhua) -- Canada's Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 1.9 percent on a year-over-year basis in June, up from a 1.7 percent increase in May, Statistics Canada said Tuesday.
Headline inflation grew at a faster pace, as gasoline prices fell to a lesser extent in June than in May, said the national statistical agency, adding that faster price growth for some durable goods, such as passenger vehicles and furniture, put upward pressure on the CPI in June.
