sorry but we have very high unemployment - the only measure captured is people on EI which is why it remains steady at 7%.

the actual stat is how many are in the labour force age group v. how many in the labour force age group have jobs - the result is that there is 30% non-employment. while there are some decreases to that we also must consider that there are 25,000 people coming to Canada each month (immigration) but the economy is not creating 25,000 jobs per month.

we should be objecting to this type of program loudly
