Canadian stocks were sharply higher, hoisted by strength across all sectors.

Materials was the main leader in Tuesday's session, followed by consumer discretionary and tech.

On the economic front, Canada's annual inflation rate unexpectedly held steady at 3.1% in November as consumers continue to be squeezed by higher mortgage interest costs, food prices and rent. This was higher than the 2.9% the market was expecting, according to economists at TD Securities.

At midday, Canada's S&P/TSX Composite Index was 0.95% higher at 20819.49 and the blue-chip S&P/TSX 60 rose by 0.93% to 1256.43.

G2 Goldfields shares were 15% higher at 77 Canadian cents (57 cents) after the company said AngloGold Ashanti intends to make a C$22.1 million investment in the company.

Other market movers:

HIVE Digital Technologies shares were 8.7% higher at C$5.60 after the company said that it plans to raise $25 million on a bought-deal basis private placement. Shares are up 8.5% in Toronto at C$5.59.

Shares in Global Atomic were 6.1% lower at C$2.63 after it said that it expects to raise C$15 million by way of a strategic investment, in part from privately owned Bermuda-based Regent Mercantile Holdings and certain related companies.
