Canada Modification d'emploi

Canada’s employment rose by 54,000, or 0.3%, in November 2025, following a 66,600 increase in October, and way better than market estimates of a 5,000 drop. Job gains were driven by part-time positions (+63,000; +1.6%), which more than offset a 9,000 decline in full-time jobs. Employment rose in health care and social assistance (+46,000; +1.6%), accommodation and food services (+14,000; +1.2%) and natural resources (+11,000; +3.4%); wholesale and retail trade declined (-34,000; -1.1%). By province, employment increased in Alberta (+29,000; +1.1%), New Brunswick (+5,500; +1.4%) and Manitoba (+4,500; +0.6%), while it was little changed in Ontario and Quebec. Cumulative increases in September, October and November (+181,000; +0.9%) followed a slow start to the year, with little net employment change from January to August.
