Statistics Canada's quarterly job vacancies report claims there are a record number of job openings in construction, manufacturing, and food and lodging services.

There were 731,900 job openings in the second quarter, which is over 26% more than the same period two years earlier.

Statistics Canada's Survey on Business Conditions suggests that more than 8% of firms anticipate an increase in job openings this quarter.

Beginning Oct. 30, passengers boarding aircraft in Canadian airports or riding Via Rail trains will be obligated to confirm they are fully vaccinated or show a negative COVID-19 test.

With rare exceptions, the testing option will be discontinued on Nov. 30, and travelers will be unable to board aircraft or Via trains unless they are completely vaccinated.
