• USD/CAD strengthened on Friday as worries over looming tariffs overshadowed Canadain  and U.S. economic data.

•Ahead of a March 4 deadline for imposing 25% tariffs on their imports, Canada and Mexico worked to present U.S. President Donald Trump's administration with evidence of progress in reducing the flow of fentanyl opioids into the U.S.

• Canada's gross domestic product grew by 2.6% on an annualized basis in the fourth quarter, exceeding the anticipated 1.8% increase, driven by a surge in consumer spending.
