The real number if probably double this percentage.
This is why the tariff would sink Canada, especially Ontario. Our Premier is spending millions in ads to persuade America, but it's just a matter of time. Since we destroy and discourage the best and brightest, we don't innovate. We rely on other nations to do it for us. It has made us weak and dependent and even a 10% tariff would crush Ontario overnight. Already a company in Taiwan withdrew a $1B project.
Meanwhile, the economy added 51,000 jobs in November, with employment gains concentrated in full-time work.
The labour force participation rate, which reflects the proportion of working-age people who are employed or looking for work, rose by 0.3 percentage points last month.
The Bank of Canada will have its eye on Friday’s job report as it gears up for its interest rate announcement on Wednesday.
Forecasters are widely expecting the central bank to deliver another interest rate cut, though there hasn’t been consensus on the size of that reduction.
High interest rates have cooled the labour market significantly over the last year.
For unemployed Canadians, that’s meant longer periods without work.
