My data feature was on the topic of youth unemployment. Without data, my story would have been just a bunch of speculation.
The stats really did tell the story. As my graph shows, other than a few ups and downs, youth unemployment has been on the steady increase since the mid 2000’s.
The graph below just show’s Canada’s youth unemployment rate, but the real problem is specifically in the province of Ontario where the youth unemployment rate is at an all-time high. One of the most worrisome statistics is how Toronto, Canada’s largest city, also has a youth unemployment rate at an all-time high.
Throughout my article, the stats prove why this is happening.
