Canada’s Unemployment Rate Rises to 6.7%, Highest Level in Six Months

Canada’s unemployment rate climbed to 6.7 per cent in October, reaching its highest level in six months, according to the latest data released by Statistics Canada on Friday.

Poilievre Accuses Carney Government of Misleading Canadians Over Immigration Targets

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has launched a sharp attack on Prime Minister Mark Carney over the federal government's new immigration plan, accusing the Liberals of manipulating figures to make it appear that immigration is under control.
