Excellent internships and good networking skills are key to a good career post-grad. Since you want to be a CA, I assume you would want to find internships at the Big 4 during your undergrad.

You can major in economics but if you are a mediocre student, chances are, you are not going to find an internship there. You must stand out in terms of academics and leadership/volunteer/work experience. Going into a business program makes finding co-op opportunities a little easier but the converse isn't necessarily true. So going into economics doesn't "decrease" your career opportunities.
