Despite recent economic growth in the province, many of Saskatchewan’s students are struggling to find employment.
Saskatchewan is enjoying an economic boom that appears even more dramatic in light of the bleak situation in neighbouring provinces and countries. Between June 2008 and June 2009, 14,500 new jobs were created in Saskatchewan. This is by far the largest number of new jobs from that time period of any province or territory ”” New Brunswick was the only other province to create any jobs and it saw an increase of only 3,000.
But while the record-breaking growth looks good on paper, it does not seem to benefit students in the market for summer jobs.
