MONTREAL, Jan 12 (Reuters) - Canadian Finance Minister Bill
Morneau on Tuesday acknowledged public concern over the
country's weakening currency, but said it was important for the
government to undertake its planned spending program.
"I know Canadians are concerned about the changes in the
value of the Canadian dollar. It's important for all Canadians.
We think it's more important to make investments in our economy.
So economic growth is very important and that's how we can
improve our economic situation," he told reporters.
