The USD/CAD forecast points northward as the Canadian dollar weakens while the dollar holds on to gains after Friday’s employment figures. Traders are scaling back expectations for a Fed cut in June while simultaneously increasing bets for a BoC cut in June.On Friday, data revealed that Canada’s economy unexpectedly shed 2,200 jobs in March. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate soared to a bigger-than-expected 6.1% during the same period. This report revealed weakness in the labor market and the economy. Consequently, there is more pressure on the Bank of Canada to cut interest rates. Before the report, there was a 68% likelihood that the BoC would cut rates in June. However, after the report, this figure rose to 75%.On the other hand, the US dollar strengthened on Friday after another blockbuster jobs report. Unlike Canada, the US added an impressive 303K jobs in March. Additionally, the unemployment rate fell to 3.8, indicating robust labor market conditions. As a result, investors scaled back bets that the Fed would cut interest rates in June. The rate cut outlook between the Fed and the Bank of Canada has diverged with these latest employment figures. The US economy remains robust, allowing the Fed to hold high rates for longer. Meanwhile, Canada’s economy is weak, and this could prompt the BoC to start cutting rates in June. These fundamentals support further upside for the USD/CAD pair.  USD/CAD key events todayThere are no major events today that might cause a lot of volatility.
