What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting

Released deliberations from the Bank of Canada’s October meeting said officials, after raising the policy rate to 2.5%, agreed there "could be a need to increase the policy rate further," citing persistent energy-driven inflation and a softer-than-expected labour market.

The Bank of Canada summary said officials agreed "there could be a need to increase the policy rate further."
Policymakers led by Governor Tiff Macklem raised the policy rate to 2.5% last month.
The council said the energy shock alone would keep CPI inflation at around 3% for more than a year.
The deliberations noted Canada’s labour market "unexpectedly loosened" last month according to Statistics Canada data.
