Canada's economy shed over 40,000 jobs in July, partly offsetting earlier growth

[shockedcanadian]

Strength in our economy has been non-existent for at least a decade and they are always tampering with the numbers just as they tamper with careers and U.S corporations operating here. You could go back even further as the government and their unions expand, the Ontario Sunshine List illustrates this massive imbalance.

The upper caste and those who are overpaid to enforce it will eventually suffer a fall from grace. Media here will continue to blame Trump meanwhile we don't even have free trade among provinces!

The Canadian economy lost more than 40,000 jobs in July, sinking the share of people employed to an eight-month low, Statistic Canada reported on Friday, as the labour market gave back substantial gains seen in June.

The unemployment rate, however, remained steady but at a multi-year-high level of 6.9 per cent, Statscan said.

The economy shed 40,800 jobs in July against a net addition of 83,000 jobs in June, taking the employment rate — or the percentage of people employed out of the total working-age population — to 60.7 per cent, the agency said.

The employment rate was the lowest since the pandemic and the loss of jobs was concentrated among permanent employees, Statscan said.

Analysts polled by Reuters had forecast that the economy would add 13,500 jobs and that the

Wonder if the guy who counts the jobs lost is going to get fired because he was being honest too?

DOn't you worry, the REAL number of unemployed is FAR, FAR higher than reported. This is a consistent and deliberate result no matter which government is in power or which bean counter they use.

It's why Trump when he realized Canada is never going to open up our markets to U.S competition just said "we will just hit them with a tariff until they come to terms".

This is all about Canadian protectionism and support from those enforcing the caste system. America will pass us by, eventually rip up USMCA and negotiate separate deals with Mexico.

All so that Canada can maintain the monopolies from big corporations, many of them just Crown Corporations in essence since so many covert Creepy Ones operate in them.

I'm just the Messenger. I'm not only a Canadian member of the caste system, I'm also a client...

The HIGH number of unemployed for Canada consistently includes a very high number of people who have "seasonal" employment - such as those who work in the fishing industry along the coasts. Or those working in the far north which is only accessible in summer. This is why the numbers seldom change no matter who's in charge.

Also, our markets are ALREADY open to the USA under the USMCA Trade Deal, which Trump is violating with these illegal tariffs. Again, if you had a clue as to Canada/US economics, you would already know that one too.

What "Crown corporation monopolies" are you blithering about, fool????? It looks like you've just folded a bunch of your usual bullshit in a post and thrown in stuff that Americans won't have the first clue about, just to make it look like you know what you're talking about.

A real Canadian will call you out on your bullshit and as as a poser who knows NOTHING about life in Canada. Keep outing yourself, liar.

Let your handler know you are wasting your time here, the details have been shared, in granular fashion.

If I am lying may G-d strike me dead. Those who need to know will do their own due diligence to either confirm or contradict my information.

I will be forced into homelessness soon, hundreds of thousands more stolen from me after millions of earning stolen. Penniless by the cowards who destroyed my life as those who have interfered in my life since I was a kid have ensured, joining the ranks of the many homeless who have been destroyed by the cowardly Creepy Ones.

The most expensive home in Canadian history...

You don't even know why you zombie you.

I don't pay attention to the whole tariffs thing, but this here doesn't sound right to me.

If Canada doesn't want to trade with US, for whatever reason, her wish should be respected. Trump can't just like, threatening Canada to open up her markets, doesn't matter how badly he wants to. It just doesn't seem right to me.

I think those are already taken into account.

I mean, obviously I don't know the economy, but I can speak from personal experience that indeed jobs have become extremely scarce. I remember before I would send out like 7,8 resumes, and would get a few calls for interview. But now there is pretty much nothing. If I didn't have other income coming in I would literally starve.

I will be forced into homelessness soon

Does this mean you will soon lose your internet too
