Abstract
This paper discusses how the Canadian labour market is currently experiencing a perfect storm of circumstances that is creating an environment conducive to some of the best employment data in decades. The paper further discusses how analysts point out that the low unemployment figures, between 4 and 5 percent, have fuelled housing related spending as well as benefited from the high prices of natural commodities where those industries have greatly expanded operations over the last 5 years. Yet, in spite of such strong economic support for continued employment strength, analysts are also quick to note that continued inflationary pressures combined with global market related factors related to competitive labour practices are sure to affect an overall increase in unemployment figures over the next several years

Abstract
With the rise to power of neoliberal forces in the United States in the 1980s, the Canadian labor market has been systemically moving towards an increasingly deregulated model that has led to many of the jobs created in Canada today being low paid and insecure. This essay critically examines several policy options to remedy this situation. The areas examined include (1) improving regulations for employment standards; (2) improving the quality of jobs; and (3) improving the quality of the Canadian labour force.

Abstract
This paper argues that, in spite of several laws that the Canadian government has enacted to prevent the discrimination of women in the workplace, women in Canada still have not yet achieved equality in the labor market.
From the Paper
"Have Women Achieved Equality in the Canadian Labour Market? Canada has put in place several legislative devices in an attempt to ensure that women do not suffer discrimination. In addition, there has been a growing recognition that discriminating against women in the labour market is unfair and should not be tolerated. However, as this paper will show, although considerable gains have been made, women have not yet achieved equality in the Canadian labour market. It will be shown that this reflects a lingering and pervasive inequality of the sexes within Canadian society. Despite the fact that legislative protections are in place, there stills needs to be a great deal of societal change before women will achieve true substantive equality in..."

Abstract
The paper relates that the surge in the Canadian job market does reflect many of the factors evident in the labor market of the United States. There is growth in some industries to include finance, professional fields, public administration and natural resource jobs. Yet, the paper shows how in many other low wage jobs there have been significant deceases in employment. Furthermore, while it is evident that full time workers are gaining positions across Canada, there are significant decreases in the number of part time positions available throughout all industries.

Abstract
This essay will examine the issue of Canadian labour market regulations and analyzes the impact labour market regulations have had on the Canadian economy both on its own terms and in an international context. This will help to determine the long-term and lasting impact labour advocacy for regulation has had on the economic underpinnings of our society, and whether they only serve moral purposes or whether they help to induce a more dynamic economic system.

Abstract
The paper discusses how Canadian workers have been victimized for decades by a political economic system which protects business, trade and the financial community interests at the expense of workers. The paper discusses further how globalization has also weakened the Canadian unions. The paper maintains that for Canadian unions to become more effective, the Canadian public must wake up and realize that globalization is just another name for exploitation.
From the Paper
"This dominance and control has been portrayed as the pursuit of policies which are in the best interests of all Canadians, and has been expressed through government and business support for the free market system and the neo-liberal policy of globalization. Unfortunately for millions of Canadian workers, government policy makers and businessmen interpret the free market system as a system dependent upon the ability of businesses to increase their profits. In their view, anything that diminishes the ability of Canadian businesses and corporations to expand their profit margins is harmful to the economy, and anything that enables Canadian businesses and corporations to maximize their profits is beneficial to the economy."

Abstract
This paper looks at the globalization of trade and finance and how it impacts Canada. More specifically, the paper discusses whether globalization is eroding Canadian sovereignty. The paper looks at how the globalization of trade and commerce is changing international relationships at various levels as well as the provisions and policies in trade agreements that pose a threat to national sovereignty and government policy.
From the Paper
"The globalisation of trade and finance is changing international relationships at several levels of interaction. One expects changing relationships in the conduct of commercial activities and some people accept that compromises are both desirable and necessary in relation to labour standards, the protection of the physical environment and other socially and politically sensitive issues. Even many of the people who accept the need for compromise in some areas, however, tend to balk at actions that lead to substantial curtailments on state sovereignty to support..."

Abstract
This paper addresses gender discrimination in the Canadian labour force. The paper makes the argument that there is a wage gap between men and women in Canada. The paper discusses theories as to why this wage gap may exist and if this is likely to change in the future.
From the Paper
"Gender Discrimination in the Canadian Labour Force Gender discrimination continues to be a problem in the Canadian workforce. Women in particular are still experiencing a wage gap in the labour force. According to Lois Moorcroft in Newfoundland Women Want Pay Equity Too, "...Full-time working women still earn only 72.5 per cent of men's salaries" (Moorcroft 2005: 6). A great deal of time and effort is being spent in order to try and rectify this situation. For example, In the 1950s, the federal government and seven of the ten provinces enacted legislation enabling 'equal pay for equal work (England and Gad 2002: 283)."

The writer claims that only through hard work, ingenuity, and self-reliance will Canadian industry be able to successfully compete in a world being transformed by globalization.

Abstract
This fourteen page undergraduate paper examines Canada and globalization. The author notes that proponents of globalization and many free trade theorists contend that global trade creates enough economic gains that every Canadian involved can benefit, as long as the gains are widely redistributed between national trading partners. The writer points out that unfortunately, globalization cannot guarantee that this redistribution will actually occur, and its proponents are limited to predictions that there will be winners and losers in all participating countries involved in free trade.

"Proponents of globalization and many free trade theorists contend that global trade creates enough economic gains that every Canadian involved can benefit, as long as the gains are widely redistributed between national trading partners. Unfortunately, globalization cannot guarantee that this redistribution will actually occur, and its proponents are limited to predictions that there will be winners and losers in all participating countries involved in free trade. These advocates of globalization studiously avoid admitting that many of the losers are and will be average working Canadians, while many of the winners will be people in the upper income brackets, often in other countries."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that Canada is a wealthy country, and is proud to be independent and democratic. However, the writer notes that Canada has been affected in recent years by globalization. It can be argued that globalization is threatening democracy in Canada, in a variety of ways. The writer discusses that a large part of this comes from the fact that Canada's neighbor is the USA, a nation that can be shown to be the driving and defining force of globalization.
From the Paper
"Canada is a wealthy country, and is proud to be independent and democratic. However, it has been affected in recent years by globalization. It can be argued that globalization is threatening democracy in Canada, in a variety of ways. A large part of this comes from the fact that Canada's neighbor is the USA - a nation that can be shown to be the driving and defining force of globalization. This makes it close to impossible for Canada to resist the USA's demands that Canada accommodate its internal domestic policies to suit globalization."
