Flaherty on recession

The federal finance minister says he's not willing to declare the recession over yet.

Jim Flaherty was in Kenora last week and says while economic signs are improving, it could be a few more months before there is real evidence of growth in the economy.

Flaherty says the Harper government is prepared to continue theireconomic stimulus package into 2011 to ensure there is continued economic growth, that that Canada doesn't slip back into recession.
