Canadian Jobs EVAPORATE In January - Mark Carney Baffled

from Tap The Maple · host Bakes On Things

Before the holidays, Canadians were told job growth proved the economy was turning a corner.But Statistics Canada’s January labour report tells a very different story.In this episode of Tap the Maple, we break down why the last real net job gains happened before the holiday hiring season, how seasonal Christmas jobs were sold as economic recovery, and why January erased the illusion almost immediately.We expose how unemployment can fall even as jobs disappear, why manufacturing losses are becoming structural, and how discouraged workers are quietly vanishing from the labour force.Most importantly, we show Canadians exactly how to read jobs reports themselves, so they’re never fooled by political spin again.This isn’t opinion.It’s in the data
