Ryan Strome Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Canada’s job market unexpectedly weakened for a second-straight month, registering the biggest drop in employment since 2009 and casting doubt on the resiliency of the domestic outlook. The economy lost 71,200 jobs in November, Statistics Canada said Friday in Ottawa, following a decline of 1,800 in the prior month. That pares the total number of jobs added this year to around 285,100. http://nationalpost.com/news/economy/canadas-economy-loses-71200-jobs/wcm/9f168108-b65d-4ffb-a6a2-120b8f5f2bfe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jagmeet Singh inherited a crapload of money recently? No way the NDP can afford another election so soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they restore these jobs if/when the pipeline gets built with the approval of the first nations people in the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreFan1 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) Ouch. In Canada, this should be borderline scandalous. PM Blackface's party needs to feel the wrath of the electorate during the next round of choosing which party will screw up the least. *edit* @Rick Blight put the job numbers into perspective a few posts down.

Popular Post Rick Blight Posted December 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) I wouldn't worry too much about this report as they are notoriously volatile (read inaccurate). Just for perspective: August - added 81,000 jobs September - added 54,000 jobs October - shed 1,800 jobs November - shed 71,000 jobs Four months net is an add of 62,200 jobs or in Trump Jr's terms an add of 622,000 jobs. U.S added 659,000 jobs over same period....seems pretty competitive to me. Edited December 7, 2019 by Rick Blight 1 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the perspective. I didn't realize that Canada's job market had huge swings like this. I'll edit my original post. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Strome Posted December 7, 2019 Author Share Posted December 7, 2019 The new way to defend Justin, let's look at the past not the present or future. I'm sure you liberals would say this if it was a conservative pm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet when the US has low or average job gains under Trump he will post it to criticize Trump. Maybe JT really has great hair cause some on here will go all out to defend him.
