Is your mortgage rate about to shoot up? We want to hear from you
Roughly 60 per cent of Canadians are set to face higher monthly mortgage payments when their loans come up for renewal this year and next, according to a new Bank of Canada report.
Even though rates are lower than they were a year ago, many homeowners renewing their mortgages had signed those contracts during periods of much lower interest.
CTV News is looking to speak with people worried about having to pay higher monthly payments and what it might mean for household budgets.

Prime Minister Mark Carney had tempered expectations of an agreement by Friday, saying Ottawa would only take the right deal for Canada.
