Canada's economy added 108,000 jobs in October, about 10 times what was expected.

The gains were broad-based, with both goods-producing industries and the service sector adding jobs, according to data released by Statistics Canada on Friday. The manufacturing, construction, accommodation and food services industries led the way, while the number of people working in retail and wholesale trade and natural resources eased.

Despite the job surge, the jobless rate held steady at 5.2 per cent, "but this was due to many more Canadians looking for work," TD Bank economist Rishi Sondhi said of the data. "[That's] a healthy sign for growth."

It happens every year, the students go back to schooling and all these jobs are there. There are those on welfare who have no intention of working ever.

Debt to population is off the charts Old people ie Boomers produce nothing We include home/commercial property sales in GDP It is done - USA mid terms and transition of power might give the markets a break It is bad folks === get your jabs and get sick - better than realisy

Get your stories straight

Follow up with all the men now being issued female hormoans without the ability to surgery to full fledged fake female. Thx so much.

Wow, that means all doctors, nurses, engineers, and teachers vacant positions filled up? When the government says 108000 jobs they mean low wages positions for which they have no secure job. It's time to change the system

That’s what happens when you let 400k people into the country. Not enough jobs and housing to go around.

People are job swapping looking for a better gig or better pay and sometimes both. Power to the people 😉

Blah blah blah leftist liberal talking points blah blah blah give us your tax dollars blah blah blah.

How Ms Freelands warnings of difficult times ahead , matchs up with a outta control BOC rate policy makes any sense at all I would suggest most have NO idea. Home sales R dead,no new cars in dealers, Putin controls oil, food prices up due to ingredient issues. Whats BOC slowing?

Any stock or index. Click year to date. The bottom of that decent is in 2023. Canadians living on credit (by choice) or above their means, are going to start 2024 with bad credit. Libs continue to add fuel to the fire. Buckle up egomaniacs. This is going to be a rough ride.

FIRST time private sector increased since March. despite all previous claims of booming economy.

Right-wing “patriots” weep 😪

Come one come all get your Walmart cashier position today free $10 signing bonus. Liberal and Jagmeet idea of success.

Canada only expected to add only 1000 new jobs in October? Anybody see the real issue?

There would be a heck of a lot more jobs if the government would allow healthcare workers to come back to work like the rest of the world is doing

Public vs private lets see. The skilled trades have not seen any new intakes and there is more work on the books for the next 10+ years than the last 10years.

Wowza! What happened?

Tell us how many federal employees? It is our tax payer $$ after all. The public service in the past 7 years has grown by leaps and bounds. If you weren’t so biased that would be an illuminating story, but hey LiberalHypocrisy and the PMO rule your stories

Oops, pierrepoilievre!

There’s lots of jobs right now but no one can afford to work in fast food or at the mall

What does that say about economists and statisticians…

It is funny how these numbers do not jive on the streets. People do not have the same settlement as corporate ran media.

That's what happens when you fire capable people from their jobs because of personal health choices.
