Please click here to find out from CBC ( April 8 ) that:

  • “Canada’s unemployment rate changed little in March as gains in full-time work were offset by declines in part-time jobs.”
  • A lot of the job gains were in these three provinces in respective order: Ontario, British Columbia and Manitoba.
  • The bulk of job losses were in Quebec and Alberta.

Hopefully, the economy will improve enormously for all Canadians this year.

Good Luck! / Bonne Chance!
