[pinto + 293]

The Canadian economy unexpectedly shed jobs last month, putting a dent on the confidence that policymakers have been expressing in recent weeks over the country’s growth outlook. The country lost 1,100 jobs in April, according to Statistics Canada. That’s a sharp drop from the 32,300 increase reported in March and badly misses the 20,000 gain that analysts had forecast. The unemployment rate was unchanged at 5.8 per cent.
