CAD review

Western Union notes:

A firmer greenback and oil south of $60 weighed on the loonie which fell to its most affordable level in a week for CAD buyers. Disappointing manufacturing data from both sides of the border largely offset, keeping the loonie in shallow negative territory. 

Canada's consumer will be in focus this week with important news Friday on consumer inflation, seen steadying at 0.8 percent, and retail sales, forecast to rise 0.7 percent for a second straight month.
