Announcements
The Bank of Canada has raised its key interest rate to 0.75% (from 0.50%). This hike in interest rate is the first in seven years. Such a move is bound to increase the costs of mortgages, home equity lines of credit and other loans linked to the big bank prime rates.
In a statement accompanying the rate decision, the central bank said the Canadian economy has been robust, fuelled by household spending. The interest rate increase had been widely expected after senior Bank of Canada officials signalled in speeches and interviews over the past weeks that lower rates had done their job, and the Canadian economy was performing well.

It’s that time of year again…! This Tuesday, July 11th is, as the numbers suggest, 7-Eleven Day (07-11-2017, get it??), which means that Canadians across the country will be able to go in to their local 7-Eleven Canada and pick up a FREE 12oz. slurpee.
This year is set to be one of the biggest Slurpee Days ever as 596 stores from BC to Ontario will each be giving away 1500 slurpees; that works out to being 894 000 free drinks! The offer will only be running from 11am through till 7pm, but what will more likely end up happening is the store will run out of quantities before the 7pm deadline rolls around.
So I suggest you get up early and prepare for a bit of a wait in line to claim your free slurpee!

The Minions are coming back! Timed with the opening of the new Despicable Me 3 movie, which opened in most theatres this past June 30th, 2017, McDonald’s Canada has decided to bring back a whole new set of Minions toys to their Happy Meals.
There are 12 new toys to collect in your Happy Meal, most of which feature a popular Minion character or someone like Gru or Lucy riding a motorcycle.
Despicable Me 3 follows Gru, a bad-guy gone good-guy, who is reunited with his long lost twin brother, Dru. Gru, being a recently reformed villain, no longer shares the interest in criminality with his brother, but Dru is determined to convince his twin that one last heist would be well worth their while.
If you and the family are at all Minions fans and would like to pair your Happy Meal with a screening of Despicable Me 3, you can check out times for the movie here on Cinema Clock.
These toys at McDonald’s Canada will only be around for the summertime, or while supplies is in-stock.

Amazon Canada has set the official day for Amazon Prime Day for 2017, the third iteration of the e-commerce giant’s exclusive savings day, and it will be this Tuesday, July 11th. This year’s savings will actually be lasting for 30 hours, and beginning slowly on Monday, July 10th at 9pmET and continuing to update every five minutes thereafter with new hot deals until Wednesday, July 12th at 3amET.
While Amazon is trying to keep a tight lid on all of the deals that will be available this year, they have already begun teasing out some warm-up deals that are available starting today. For instance, you can pick up Amazon Music Unlimited in a four-month subscription package for just $0.99 (keep in mind, for Prime members this service usually costs $7.99/month).
That’s the other restriction you should be aware of for Amazon Prime Day; you have to be an Amazon Prime Member to take advantage of the deals. Prime membership supplies you with free shipping with no minimum purchase and access to Amazon video, as well as 20% off on diapers and video pre-game orders. Amazon Prime membership costs $79 for a one-year membership (or $39 for a student), but you will also be able to shop the deals if you have signed up for a free trial membership.
Also, keep in mind that Amazon might actually be offering discounted Amazon Prime memberships during Prime Day.
Keep an eye on the Amazon Prime Day page, as they will be updating the deals throughout the day so as to encourage people who may be a bit later to the game.

We’ve all been patiently waiting for McDonald’s Canada to begin offering their delivery services in Canada, as it was announced earlier this year that they intended to begin experimenting with it in 2017. Well in select cities across the country, depending on your location in each city too, of course, you can now have a Big Mac delivered to the comfort of your home using UberEATS.
McDonald’s is partnering with UberEATS to secure home delivery to select cities across Canada, and the cost of said delivery will continue to be the UberEATS delivery fee of just $4.99. The food on the delivery menu will continue to be sold at the same price you would find in-store, and you will also have access to McDonald’s all-day breakfast menu (this will be key for the morning after a late night out where all you need is an egg McMuffin but don’t feel like changing out of your sweatpants!)
And to save yourself a little extra off your first UberEATS order you can use the promo code, MCDS005, to shave an extra $5 off – which will essentially wave the delivery fee from your order!
Click here to see if UberEATS will deliver McDonald’s in your city.
Whether you like it, love it, or simply want to dump it overboard, the giant rubber duck – with the proportionately large price tag to accompany it – has washed up on the shores of Toronto waterfront for Canada Day weekend.
The six-storey, 13, 600 kg duck is one of the largest of the inflatable aquatic variety and was made for the purposes of the RedPath Waterfront Festival, though many are struggling to find a valid connection between a $200,000 oversized pool toy and Canada 150.
Previous installations similar to this plastic, yellow friend were created by a Dutch artist who has traveled the world showcasing his unorthodox and oversized creations.
The public outcry of the rubber duck, however, has not stopped the bird from stretching it’s proverbial wings across the southern part of Ontario, as after it’s brief visit in Toronto it will be making strides to Owen Sound for July 3.
