New There is a difficult time for Prime Minister Mark Carney in Canada at this time. This country is known for vast natural resources and high-Fi lifestyle. But at this time a major crisis in Canada as unemployment has deepened. In April 2025, this country was able to give only 7,400 jobs. While the unemployment rate has increased to 6.9%, which is the highest since November 2023. This disappointing performance of Canada, which is counted among the rich countries of the world, has raised concerns about economic stagnation. Increased American tariffs on major Canadian exports such as steel, aluminum and automobiles are being described as the reason for this. Lack of jobs and increased labor force have become a major challenge for Canada’s economic flexibility.
Unemployment increased considerably
According to Statistics Canada, there are about 16 lakh Canadians unemployed in the country. At the same time, there is a lot of stress in the labor market. 7400 pure jobs were added to Canada in April. Whereas in March, 32,600 jobs of people went away. This shows uneven recovery of economy. At the same time, the barozing rate has increased from 6.7 percent to 6.9 percent. This is more than an analysts’ forecast of 6.8 percent. There is a worrying trend, as about 61 percent of the unemployed people in March were also unemployed in April. This is 4 percent higher than last year.
Pressure on social services
There is no coordination in the population and number of jobs in Canada. Due to this imbalance, there is pressure on social services there and concerns about economic instability in the long term have increased. The biggest brunt of low jobs in April has suffered the manufacturing sector. Statistics Canada directly connected this decline with the tariff installed under the trade policy of Donald Trump. Trump has targeted Canadian steel, aluminum and automobile sectors.
