    Good thing our immigration minister just defended the low-skill stream of the TFW program because she says businesses like it….. and she announced 33,000 extra temporary to PR visa transitions on top of the already high PR quotas.

    Good luck getting a job.

  2. These are the outcomes that impact Canadians, not xyz virtue signaling or 75B for random cause. Canada needs to get back to focusing on the things that improve MOST Canadians daily life.

    Employment declined by 84,000 (−0.4%).

    Participation rate fell 0.1 pp to 64.9% in February; down 0.4 pp year-over-year.

    Unemployment rate increased 0.2 percentage points to 6.7%.

    Youth (15–24): employment declined by 47,000 (−1.7%).

    Black youth unemployment: 23.2%, up 4.6 pp year-over-year.

    Full-time employment declined 108,000 (−0.6%).

    Private-sector employment declined 73,000 (−0.5%).

    Don’t worry, the government has a solution. Canada is adding 760,000 (380,000 per year for 2026 and 2027) Permanent Residents and fast-tracking 115,000 “Protected Persons” (asylum) and 33,000 temporary workers act as exemptions.

    They need to create jobs. Cut the ducking corporate tax even more if required, bring more incentive schemes, make land leasing easier, make hirings easier, stop with RTO and spending money on commercial buildings and start with bringing businesses to canada.

    Trying to diversify is step 1, use our natural resources is step 2, create growth oriented and more robust business and start up environment is step 3.

  5. Awful stats. And unfortunately cutting rates would only do so much against these sorts of structural headwinds facing us.

    We need major fiscal and business reform. Emergency powers act NOW to open up the ring of fire and build pipelines. START BUILDING NOW, STOP TALKING

    Life under Carney has gotten progressively worse. Unless you moved your money to Brookfield of course – was up 42% until the war broke out. Now is a good time to get in.

    All y’all blaming immigrants for losing your jobs, maybe it’s because you’re just not good?

    brutal! many of these were fully time jobs supporting families. this is awful hardship. AI is creeping in to many knowledge base sectors. I want to see the breakdown where these job losses came from.

    This is objectively very bad off the back of the previous report job loss. I’d bet we are in a recession this quarter after we had negative growth last quarter.

  10. how can we need thousands of TFWs with these numbers? and youth unemployment at 14%. put two and two together.

    Largest loss of full time jobs since the start of the Pandemic

    Not looking good for us

    It looks like the unemployment rate goes up with the elbows.

    Also do not worry about the temporary foreign worker program. I’m sure the government will completely fix that. Also in an unrelated note unlimited chain immigration is now a thing in Canada.

    Maybe there’s a silver lining where the TFWs and fake international students need to return home

    The increase in fuel prices are going to deflate consumer spending too. Good for the energy industry, bad for…everything else.

    Guys. Re-elect the Liberals again. Clearly Liberals and Progressive Conservatives have done so great for this country.

    Ah I remember a time when workers had a lot more negotiating power, wages were on their way up and unemployment was low.

    Then Trudeau decided it was called a labor shortage.

    People wonder why we have a massive brain drain to the US and it’ll only get worse.

  18. toilet_for_shrek on

    Why is the low-wage stream of the TFW program still allowed? Why do PR targets still exceed 450K this year? 

  19. Warm-Mood-8994 on

    So we’re running massive deficits and still going in the wrong direction?

  20. What you get when you vote for the liberals. P

    But people still keep voting for them.

    I’m not saying it’s a silver bullet, but at the end of the day, job market and employment rate is a supply and demand issue. Liberals must stop this mass low skill labour intake. Carney really gave a false impression at the start of his term about immigration and then Liberals gradually went back to being Liberals and now our TFW and low skill labour is going through the roof again according to IRCC published numbers…
