Reporting of a modest uptick… the real percentage is much worse.

6.75%

look at the underlying numbers for youth. that is the problem with this economy, the temporary foreign worker surge has taken all the entry level jobs, the youth can’t get employment and in turn experience. it’s an inevitable spiral down from there.

buddy you realize the unemployment rate was around 6.3 during Harpers term, and around 6.8 after the 08 crisis. so unless you want to say you don't like Harper anymore, you really don't have a leg to stand on

lol money talks, and floor crossers walk. Only a smooth brain would believe this is democracy, when in reality it is just political cowardice dressed up as principle.

you realize floor crossing happens in EVERY democracy (happened under Harper, and Trudeau and even Mulroney). instead of blaming the LPC maybe look inward and think why do they want to cross the floor

I think the government lies about unemployment numbers regardless.

the government doesn't report unemployment. StatsCan does. they are also non partisan and independant. plus they publically report all their datapoint for you to crosscheck and fact check
