- Household spending grew 0.3%, the slowest pace since the first quarter of 2015.
- Household spending on goods was unchanged, following 11 consecutive quarterly increases.
- Export volumes rose 0.4% after increasing 1.0% in the fourth quarter of 2017.
- Exports of crude oil and crude bitumen (+9.9%) largely contributed to the gains.
