Plenty of work in Canada following creation of thousands of new jobs
December 10 2009 by Liam Clifford
Unemployment in Canada decreases again as more people move to Canada.
There was good news this week for anyone considering a move to
Canada. The country revealed that it added 79,000 new jobs in November, lowering
unemployment to 8.5 per cent.
These indications that the recession in
Canada is well and truly on its way out are a relief to many, especially those
who may be looking for work in Canada after recently moving there on a Canadian
visa.
The private sector was where most of the job creation took place,
with many jobs being added in the manufacturing and finance industries.
Full-time employment rose by 38,600 during the month, while 40,400 more people
became employed on a part-time basis.
The three provinces of Quebec,
Alberta and Ontario – all of which are popular destinations for Canadian visa
holders – saw the greatest number of job creations. Ontario alone gained 27,000
jobs over the month of November, while Quebec also added a huge 21,000
jobs.
In addition, the country’s GDP figures from Statistics Canada
showed that the country’s economy grew by an annualised rate of 0.4 per cent in
the third quarter of the year.
