While B.C. saw a slight overall drop, Kelowna still leads in joblessness, with Chilliwack and Abbotsford-Mission rising and Vancouver and Nanaimo seeing minor improvements. On a brighter note, youth employment surged by 33,000 jobs nationwide, with students planning to return to school seeing a sharp drop in unemployment—most new roles full-time—and the province points to this resilience, plus upcoming events and investments, as keys to future growth.
