description: "Canada's September trade surplus expanded to CAD5.35 billion, the highest in over four years and exceeding forecasts of CAD5 billion. This was driven by a 0.2% month-over-month rise in merchandise exports to CAD78.551 billion, supported by gold and energy sales to the US, while imports fell 0.3%. The surplus with the US widened to CAD12.3 billion. However, excluding gold and energy, global exports dropped 5.6%, impacted by new US tariffs."
