Ontario job creation up by close to 20,000

ONTARIO (CP) — Provincial Finance Minister Charles Sousa says most of the jobs being created in Ontario are good paying, full-time positions. The province led Canada in job creation last month, adding a net total of 19,800 jobs - most of them full-time. However, there are still areas in the province where work remains scarce. The jobless rate in Windsor remains the highest of any major city in Canada at 9.3 per cent, while the rate in St. Catharines-Niagara and Sudbury increased to 8.6 per cent.
