The linked pages contain data and related to job creation, labour force changes, and related issues. The sub-pages can be accessed by placing the cursor over this page title (menu bar), then clicking on the desired page.
All values are estimates, based on household surveys carried out by Statistics Canada. The surveys generate error rates -these are not shown here but can be viewed in the Statistics Canada Tables.
There may be a brief lag before the plot loads. By moving your cursor along the plot, you can see absolute and percent changes from the same month of the previous year. On a mobile device, you might want to rotate to horizontal.
