Employment Record: Economic Action Plan

Economic Action Plan: And the lack of progress in job creation for young Canadians is becoming a political liability for the Harper government that continues to boast of having the best employment record in the G7, according to CTV. Liberal critic Rodger Cuzner zeroed in on Conservative ads promoting the government's "Economic Action Plan," noting that for the $95,000 cost of airing one spot during the NHL playoffs, 32 summer jobs could be created and OTTAWA -- Whether jobs are created or lost on any given month, the one constant in Canada's post-recession employment record has been that for young people, the news has always bad. Opposition Liberal MPs took turns Friday hammering the government on the issue after Statistics Canada released the latest labour market report showing a net gain of 12,500 jobs for the month of April, but a loss of 18,800 jobs for the 15-24 age group.
