Mc-1 Kinnion, president of The Can- adian Bank of Commerce, told uha reholders at the bank's 93rd annual meeting, Dec. 8th. Much of our national income, how- ever, is based on export mar- kets for naturel and semi-pro. ceesed products, and much ofl our lndustry depends on a small but growixig domestic market,l and for the long term we must1 closely observe the internation- ai environment, while creating a good business climate at hiome, Mr. MeKinnoti said. The past year has been mark- ed by 'rapid recovery from last Iyear's recessive phase", a reco',- ery largely generated by con- sumer expenditure, with a markedl growth in the purchase of durable goods. Gross National Product shows an increase of some 5 'Ai percent on a constant dollar basis, as at the end of the lecond quarter, and it iseemns like'y that the iricrease will ,continue through the balance of the year, Mr. McKinnon said. The recovery was m6ade in a year in which niany strains were placed on the cconomy.
