Quality of employment is obviously critical. On paper, city officials will tell you that we’re punching above our weight on employment stats… but if you factor in the 20% poverty rate, there’s obviously some dodgy math at play. Hamilton could have 0% unemployment and still have one on five under LICO.

UK’s unemployment rate: 7.7%
Canada’s unemployment rate: 7.4%
Hamilton’s unemployment rate: 5.4%
