Canada's economy added 41,000 new jobs in April, mostly part-time work.
Statistics Canada reported Friday that the jobless rate held steady in the month at five per cent.
Ontario added 33,000 new jobs, while Prince Edward Island added 2,200. Manitoba lost 4,000 jobs, and everywhere else, the job market was little changed.
Almost all the new jobs were part-time, with 47,000 new positions. Full-time work, meanwhile, shrank by 6,200, and self-employment was flat.
Among those who worked only part-time during the month, almost one in six say they would have preferred full-time work but couldn't find it.
