The Canadian Labour Market at a Glance has been prepared by the Labour Statistics Division under the direction of Peter Morrison (Director) and Geoff Bowlby (Chief, Analysis and Special Projects, Labour Force Survey). Contributions from numerous individuals, both in the Labour Statistics Division and elsewhere, have made this product possible. First and foremost, Danielle Zietsma (project manager), Danielle Boucher and Maxine Davidson worked hard and diligently to coordinate and produce this publication.

Special thanks go to the authors who have combined their efforts to paint a relevant and timely portrait of the Canadian labour market: Danielle Zietsma, Jeannine Usalcas, Vincent Ferrao, Dominique Pérusse, Geoff Bowlby, Yves Decady, Helen Fung, Tina Chui, Kelly Tran, Rosalinda Costa and Andy Siggner.

Appreciation is also extended to the analysts and experts at Statistics Canada and elsewhere who gave their invaluable insights and guidance. In particular, thorough reviews were done by Geoff Bowlby, Peter Morrison, Ted Wannell, Richard Dupuy, and Vincent Ferrao.

Thanks to the following people for their essential support in the areas of production and composition, marketing, data and chart verification, style editing and translation: Maxine Davidson, Danielle Boucher, Conrad Jorge, Marc Lévesque, Gisèle Parent, Karine Proulx, and the team of translators.

Finally, Statistics Canada would like to acknowledge the most important contributors to the Canadian Labour Market at a Glance–the respondents to the surveys used in the publication. Our sincere gratitude is extended to these respondents. This report would not have been possible without their co-operation.
