A KPMG survey found Canada's top executives are becoming less bullish on the economy, Bloomberg reports 

Chief executive officers in Canada are getting more concerned about the domestic economy, with almost 60 per cent saying economic uncertainty is their biggest current challenge — slightly higher than the 53 per cent of CEOs globally who said that, Bloomberg’s Derek Decloet reported, citing a survey commissioned by advisory firm KPMG. The proportion of top executives who expressed confidence in the three-year growth outlook for Canada’s economy was 83 per cent, a decline of six percentage points from last year, though most CEOs are still bullish on their own companies’ prospects over the next few years, Bloomberg reported.
