Northeast region bucks July job losses with low unemployment
Alaska Highway News reports July brought 30 400 national job losses per Statistics Canada while the Northeast of British Columbia posted a drop in unemployment to 4 3 percent from 48 percent in June. Brent Hodson of the Fort St John Chamber notes still available skilled and unskilled jobs across sectors including health care, hospitality, and oil and gas. Local postings show demand in mining and energy trades, with residents like Stephan Still hopeful for quick reemployment in mining or oil and gas construction despite low commodity prices.
