    You kind of answered it, didn’t you? More graduates than ever…

    If I was young right now, healthcare or trades seems like the way to go.

  3. Because we as a country pretend as if building oil pipelines and LNG facilities will fix our economy in the long term, as if being heavily reliant on commodity cycles is a good thing.

    Nobody gives a shit about the unglamorous stuff like helping small businesses scale or tax reform to encourage more innovation. Nobody wants to admit the harsh truth that we need to be more like Korea or Taiwan, not Saudi Arabia or Qatar.

    Remember the 2025 election debate? The only economy-related question was about oil pipelines.

    We are a service economy but we’re obsessed with talking about digging stuff out of the ground. Meanwhile Silicon Valley firms are setting up shop on our campuses and offering cushy jobs with big salaries. The sad thing is that they don’t want to leave but they literally have no other choice.

    Don’t worry though, another oil pipeline or a couple more LNG facilities will surely fix this.

    The question answers itself, doesn’t it? More graduates than ever means more competition for entry-level jobs, higher rates of post-grad unemployment. You can have the most educated population in the world, but if you don’t have an economy that can support the number of new grads being pumped out, it’s meaningless

  5. High immigration over the past few years, A.I.’s reduction of jobs, tariffs impacting investments and businesses, lack of manufacturing and innovation in Canada, and degrees that don’t match up to what the job market needs.

    Cant start a startup in Canada, so only legacy companies can hire. Legacy companies are at capacity.

    1) More Grads does not mean more educated grads. Post secondaries have been lowering their standards constantly.

    2) Canada does not do a good job of matching degrees with employeement. There should be some correlation between jobs required in a field and acceptance into those bachelor programs.

  8. The TFW program needs to be shutdown, immigration and visas need a lot of tightening. Entry level jobs have queues for job applicants and foodbanks are overwhelmed.

    How skilled are they actually though? With the crazy amount of diploma mills that catered towards immigration and fast pass PR access, there’s a tonnnnnnnn of people with „business admin“ (or similar) style certificates that seem like complete jokes these days.

    What, if anything, did they actually learn from these Fake Schools that is useful and practical to modern companies? All of these poorly prepared „graduates“ have saturated the market and brought down the integrity of our education system.

    We need to be harder at regulating and providing the right incentives for employers to deal with the labour market that we have, not to cheapen and exploit labourers THEY need to keep their profits up.

    More like Canada is producing more graduates than ever, said graduates as well as young professionals and landed immigrants are struggling in the job market, so **why is the govt still accepting near record amounts of immigrants / year** (300k+)?
