Sidenote: Not sure if anyone caught the lengthy interview Canon gave to Imaging Resource but not one word was mentioned about future Powershot development. More specifically they said emphasis would be on ILCs, based in recent sales trends. I do think the G7X Mark III is def. coming but any replacement of any other model afterwards would be a pleasant surprise.

From Canon's quarterly financial speech in October:

"For compact cameras, our sales in the third quarter were 720 thousand units, 15% below that of last year. For our full-year projection, we maintained our previous projection of 10.0 million units for the market and 3.0 million for our own unit sales. Under this situation, we will work to improve profitability with a continuing focus on selling premium models (G-series)."

I wouldn't be surprised by another G9 X update in the future.
