Unemployment returns to Canada at prebandom levels.

Unemployment returns to Canada on a prebandemic level. According to Statistics Canada (National Statistics Organization of Ottawa), the unemployment rate in February fell to 5.5% from 6.2% in January (6.0% in November and December), compared to 6.0% in Reuters. In February 2020, this number was less than 5.7% before the outbreak of the corona virus infection.
