A comprehensive evaluation of measures of core inflation for Canada : an update / by Helen Lao and Ceciline Steyn. : FB3-6/2019-9E-PDF
"We provide an updated evaluation of the value of various measures of core inflation that could be used in the conduct of monetary policy.

These measures remain less biased, less volatile and much more persistent relative to alternative core measures and CPI inflation. They are also still moving with the economic cycle. Our analysis shows that historical revisions have been relatively small among these three core inflation measures since their inception and that CPI-common seems less prone to revisions and sector-specific shocks than CPI-trim and CPI-median"--Abstract, page ii.
