More people were without a job in November compared to the month before in Windsor.
Statistics Canada's Labour Force Survey for last month showed an unemployment rate of seven per cent, up 0.3 percentage points from October. The Labour Participation Rate also slipped in November to 60.8 per cent, a decline of half a percentage point.
Across the province, more people were looking for work, and that boosted the unemployment rate to 5.6 per cent, an increase of 0.3 percentage points.
The Canadian unemployment rate last month was 5.9 per cent, up 0.4 percentage points.
Nationally, the economy lost 71,000 net jobs. Full and part-time employment were evenly split, and most of the losses were in manufacturing and natural resources.
While the numbers for self-employed and public sector workers remained steady, they fell in the private sector.
Despite November's losses, the Canadian economy has still added 293,000 net positions over the past year.
Statistics Canada did not include numbers comparing Canada's unemployment and labour participation rate to the U.S.
