Young people can't find jobs. Is Canada's economy in trouble?

Applicants at the CNEs Job Fair wait in line at the Enercare in Toronto




The unemployment rate for Canadians between 15 and 24 is at 15 percent, the highest it's been since 2010, not including the pandemic.

Why can't young people find a job? And how do these numbers fit into the wider health of our economy at the moment?

Economist and Atkinson Fellow on the Future of Workers Armine Yalnizyan is on the show to talk about these numbers, why they stand out and what could be done to prepare and protect the economy from a world of near-constant uncertainty. (CBC)
