flag Canada added 60,000 jobs in September, with gains in manufacturing, health care, and agriculture, but job growth still lags labor force expansion.

flag Canada added 60,000 jobs in September, with gains in manufacturing, health care, and agriculture, marking the first manufacturing employment rise since January. flag Employment grew most among workers aged 25 to 54, and average hourly wages rose 3.3% year-over-year, a nine-year high. flag Youth unemployment reached its highest level since 2010, driven by students, while recent immigrants remained more likely to be overqualified for their roles. flag Despite the hiring surge, job growth hasn’t kept up with labour force expansion, and economists expect the Bank of Canada to likely hold or cut rates on October 29, pending inflation data.
