              by Colin R. Singer / Monday, 09 July 2018 / Published in 2018, Canada Immigration News Articles
              Canada Unemployment Drops to 5.5% With 54,000 Jobs Added In September

              July 6, 2018 – Canada saw 32,000 more people find jobs over the course of June, the biggest increase in three months.

              The rise means employment has increased by 215,000 in the last year, according to the latest Statistics Canada figures.

              However, more people looking for work meant the Canada unemployment rate grew from 5.8 per cent to 6 per cent during the month.

              Ontario, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba were the main movers provincially, with the majority of other provinces holding firm across June.
