Perhaps the very best news for Canada's trade negotiators. Strong evidence that Trump's tariffs are harming the American economy more than the Canadian economy.

America's inflation rate is much higher than that of Canada.

said most of those gains were split between full- and part-time work, as wholesale and retail trade alone added 21,000 new jobs.

I remember reading the employment report a few months back and it said majority of the jobs were part-time.

Another reason why 'unemployment rate' isn't the best metric, but it's good enough for economists to write articles.
