Canada added 231,000 jobs in June 2021. Ontario is one of the four provinces to make out employment growth in June. Other provinces include B.C., Quebec, and Nova Scotia.
In the pandemic, the scope for additional job opportunities in nine occupations in the Canadian province of Ontario is increased.

The Canadian Federal government surveyed the impact of the pandemic in each province and territory. It found that Ontario has looked for 109 occupations, which witnessed the changes in employment in contrast to pre-COVID days.
Immigrant employment in June
Immigrants have seen a slow recovery phase. The employment rate was about 57% which is two points less compared to February 2020. While for Canadian-born workers who were employed at a rate of 60% were just 1% down compared to over the same period.
Recent immigrants from the past five years have a higher rate of employment. This is because the number of newcomers has fallen due to COVID travel restrictions to migrants.
In the three months ending in June, the number of very recent immigrants was down nearly 12 percent while their employment was down nearly seven percent. As a result of their population falling faster than their employment, the employment rate for this group was almost 68 percent in June, up nearly four percentage points compared with pre-pandemic levels. |
Monitoring economic recovery
The employment rate is calculated based on the number of people employed and the percentage of people having above 15 years of age. This makes to understand how the employment rate and the labor market trends change comparatively.
Time between February 2020 and June 2021, Canada's population has increased slightly by more than 1 percent. To maintain the employment pace with population growth, the Canadian government has added 203,000 opportunities.
