Carney previews items in budget, including school food program, automatic tax filing

The Canada Revenue Agency will prepare pre-filled tax returns for more low-income people with simple tax situations to ensure they get access to benefit programs.

The CRA already runs an automatic filing pilot program, something the Trudeau government first announced in 2023.

Canada adds surprise 60,000 jobs in September, unemployment rate steady at 7.1%

The labour market added an unexpected 60,000 jobs in September, led by gains in the tariff-struck manufacturing sector.

Economists had called for a gain of just 5,000 jobs in September, coming off losses of more than 100,000 positions over the previous two months. StatCan said gains were concentrated in full-time work with 106,000 positions added in September, more than offsetting a drop in part-time work. The agency said total employment is up a modest 22,000 net jobs since the start of the year as U.S. tarif
