A traveller arrives at Heathrow Airport Terminal 3, in London, on Nov. 8, 2021. Henry Nicholls/Reuters Hundreds of workers at London’s Heathrow airport will walk out in the run-up to the soccer World Cup this month over demands for better pay, a British union said on Friday.

Canada’s economy added 108,000 jobs in October, blowing past expectations in show of resilience

Image
The Canadian economy showed resilience in October as it created a robust number of jobs, more than recouping the positions that were lost during a summer lull. Employment jumped by 108,000 in October, far exceeding the 10,000 that analysts expected, Statistics Canada said Friday in a report. Combined with a modest gain in September, the recent uptick has taken total employment to an all-time high. The unemployment rate held steady at 5.2 per cent, given that more people participated in the labour market last month. Several analysts were encouraged by the underlying details: Job creation was entirely in full-positions and mostly in the private sector. Total hours worked rose 0.7 per cent, an early sign that economic growth will remain positive in the fourth quarter. Compensation, meanwhile, picked up again. Average hourly wages grew 5.6 per cent over the past year, up from 5.2 per cent in September, for a fifth consecutive month above 5 per cent. The acceleration in wages will likely...
