OTTAWA - Canada's economy added a net 63,800 jobs in September, more than tripling expectations, while the jobless rate stayed at 5.5%, Statistics Canada data showed on Friday.
The acceleration in wage growth is likely to worry the central bank, which has stressed that it will be hard to fully curb inflation if wages maintain their current patterns of rising between 4% and 5% annually. With September's robust gains, the economy is averaging 30,000 monthly employment growth this year, up from 25,000 a month earlier.
Months after leaving the White House, former President Donald Trump allegedly discussed potentially sensitive information about U.S. nuclear submarines with a member of his Mar-a-Lago Club -- an Australian billionaire who then allegedly shared the information with scores of others, including more than a dozen foreign officials, several of his own employees, and a handful of journalists, according to sources familiar with the matter.
