AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Labour Market: Canada lost 68,000 jobs in September, sharpening concerns about a weakening job market and the effect of public-sector cuts. Immigration & Hiring: Ottawa is giving Express Entry candidates with high-wage job offers more points and dropping the LMIA requirement, while New Brunswick is easing immigration rules for retail and hospitality workers. Skills & Staffing: The federal government has committed $258.6 million to training workers for critical sectors, as staffing shortages leave hundreds of francophone child-care spaces closed. Job Security: Stelco faces a warning that Ottawa could force the sale of its Canadian assets if jobs are cut; meanwhile, about 360 workers face the closure of Owen Sound’s RBW plant, and Nackawic mill workers are pressing for support as a shutdown looms.
