加国二月失业率升至7.7% 安省失业数全国领先

多伦多信息港(记者季翔报道)：安省二月份流失35,300个岗位，位居全国第一，而且也推动加拿大失业率创下6年来新高。

就全国来看，二月份共有82,600人失去工作，失业率上升到7.7%，几乎比去年同期高出2个百分点。“自从去年10月，国内就业岗位流失将近一半发生在安省，而安省劳动年龄人口才占全国的39%。”加拿大统计局说。在过去4个月里，安省共有16万人下岗，大部分来自制造、建筑以及商务。

继一月份流失12.9万个后，二月份就业岗位流失量继续扩大，这也更加证明加拿大经济已经跌下悬崖而且还未见底。如果仔细分析，结果更加令人吃惊。二月份全职工作流失11.1万个，被兼职工作增加抵消了一部分。在过去四个月里，加拿大共有29.5万人失业。

鉴于之前一月失业大多发生在工厂，大多数经济学家预计二月份失业人数会在5万的水平上。事实上二月份制造业的低迷也传播到建筑业，使得该行业裁掉43,000名工人。这是该行业两个月来第二次大幅裁员，从而表明房市也在恶化。

统计局表示受打击最大的是15到24岁间的年轻男性劳动力，过去四个月来有104,000人失业。二月份，亚省有23,700人失业，魁北克省18,400人。爱德华王子岛省(Prince Edward Island)、新斯科舍省(Nova Scotia)、马尼托巴省(Manitoba)以及萨斯咯彻温省(Saskatchewan)的失业率保持稳定。
