Simultaneously, joblessness declined 0.4 percentage points to settle at 6.5 percent, Statistics Canada announced.<\/p>\n<p>Sectoral analysis revealed diverging trends across industries, the agency noted. Healthcare and social assistance sectors experienced workforce expansion, alongside gains in accommodation and food services industries and natural resources operations. Conversely, wholesale and retail trade sectors shed positions during the same period.<\/p>\n<p>Worker confidence showed signs of erosion despite employment gains. Last month&#8217;s data indicated 73.6 percent of employees perceived their positions as stable.
