Rise in Job Numbers in Five Canadian Provinces in August
According to StatsCan Labour Force Survey, the employment sector in Canada has increased significantly in August as a result of the rise in part-time work. As compared to the rest of the country, three industrial sectors and five Canadian provinces like Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, New Brunswick, and Saskatchewan saw the maximum employment gains.
Ontario: part-time work in wholesale and retail
When it comes to job opportunities in Canada, Ontario is the hub for professionals. Last month, it offered a large number of Canadian jobs with an increase of 58,000 net new jobs in part-time work. On comparing the employment rate at the same time last year, Ontario was up by 250,000, which marked a year-over-year increase of 3.5 per cent.
Interested ones can apply to the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) to become eligible for work or study experience in the province. It offers multiple immigration options to skilled foreign workers including its three immigration streams linked to the Federal Express Entry system.
Quebec: finance, insurance, real estate, leasing
Quebec stands out from the rest of the Canadian provinces because of its different language culture and immigration program. It has its own rules and regulation for immigration to access the entry of skilled and eligible candidates in the province that can occupy its large number of vacant job profiles.
Last month, it offered an additional 20,000 net new jobs and with that its employment rates rose for the second month in a row. Majority of new job numbers were available in the finance, insurance, real estate, rental and leasing industries. On comparing the employment rate with the same time last year, Quebec was up by over year increase of 112,000 or 2.6 per cent.
