Pay gains are still moderating slightly compared to very high readings earlier this year \u2014 they were up by 5.6 percent in March compared to a year earlier \u2014 but the pace of increase remains unusually rapid.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/business\/article-canada-unemployment-rate-july-jobs\/\">in the frozen North<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Canadian employment fell for a second consecutive month in July, but the unemployment rate held steady at a historic low, a sign that labour market conditions remain tight.<\/p>\n<p>Employers shed 31,000 positions last month, following a decline of 43,000 in June, Statistics Canada said in a report on Friday. Financial analysts on Bay Street were expecting a stronger return of 15,000 jobs added. Despite the decline, the unemployment rate remained at 4.9 per cent \u2013 the lowest in nearly five decades of comparable data \u2013 as fewer people sought work.<br \/>\n<b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/>\nFriday\u2019s report showed job losses that were highly concentrated. The number of public-sector employees fell by 51,000. Ontario shed about 27,000 workers. And the losses were entirely in service industries, such as wholesale and retail trade, health care and education.<br \/>\n<b>&#8230;<\/b><br \/>\nEmployers were recruiting for about one million positions in May, near all-time highs, according to the most recent Statscan figures. More recently, the volume of job listings on Indeed has faded, though is still substantially higher than before COVID-19.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<table border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td
