Canada’s economy posted a second consecutive month of job losses in September, pushing up the unemployment rate and offsetting what had been a hot streak for the labour market earlier in the year. Statistics Canada said Friday the economy lost 68,000 positions in September, coming off a loss of 42,000 roles in August. Economists had expected a gain of 9,200 jobs in the month. StatCan said job losses were nearly evenly split between full- and part-time work and were concentrated in the public sector. The unemployment rate edged up a tenth of a point to 6.5 per cent last month, back to where it stood at the start of the year in January. September now marks the steepest single month of job losses since February.
