"September was a strong month for employment in Canada adding 43,000 new jobs and slightly outpacing August numbers," said Ahu Yildirmaz, vice president and co-head of the ADP Research Institute. "However, this trend reversed in October with a loss of nearly 6,000 jobs. There have been similar decreases earlier in the year as well and this is in part due to the tightening labour market. The Canadian economy has added more than 250,000 jobs so far this year, which is 25 percent more than the total number of jobs created in all of 2016. As unemployment sinks lower available workers will continue to grow scarce."
