A rising tide does not lift all boats

This paper starts with an overview of the changes in Ontario’s labour market since 2019. It uses data from Statistics Canada’s Labour Force Survey (LFS) on racialized workers to understand the impact of these labour market changes on the racialized workforce. Did improved labour market conditions benefit all workers equally? This paper analyzes the impact of tighter labour market conditions on racialized workers in Ontario, with a focus on Black workers, in particular.
