Canadian Dollar Steadies Amid Mixed Retail Data

The Canadian dollar stayed almost the same against the U.S. dollar on Friday.

This happened because oil prices went up a little, and there was news about how people in Canada are spending money.

In October, people spent a tiny bit less on things like food and drinks.

But the guess for November shows they might have spent a bit more.

The Bank of Canada, which controls money things, says they are watching this closely but aren't making big changes yet.

The Canadian dollar has been pretty steady this week, even though the U.S. dollar is getting stronger against other currencies.
