Canada shed nearly two million jobs in April, as the novel coronavirus pandemic tore through the Canadian economy.
That, on top of an employment drop of over one million in March, brings the total job losses since the start of the COVID-19 shutdown to over three million, Statistics Canada said on Friday.
Speaking to reporters later that day, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that bad as they were, those numbers only "tell us what we already knew" during these "unprecedented" times.
Trudeau also announced the government’s wage subsidy program for employers will be extended past June.
The move, he said, would help “kickstart” Canada’s economic re-opening and boost jobs.
“We’ll have more details next week,” he said. “But to businesses hit by COVID-19, know this: The wage subsidy will continue to be there for you.”
