On November 4, Statistics Canada revealed the Labour Force Survey data for October 2022. The general unemployment rate has returned to its original state after the observed increases from May-September but is still equivalent to September’s 5.2%. The survey revealed that immigrants successfully secured employment and filled various labour shortages across Canada. Just over 62% of immigrant adults are employed. Furthermore, those who arrived in Canada within the last five years had an even higher employment rate of 70.7%.
