Where Labour Force Survey lands in the trading day

1 hour before the 9:30 AM Eastern U.S. equity open, so the figure is public before the first trade of the session rather than during it.

What it measures

Labour Force Survey, in one paragraph

The Labour Force Survey is the Canadian monthly count of employment, unemployment, and participation, taken from a household survey. It is the Canadian equivalent of the American jobs report and lands on a Friday morning.

What JMM reads first

Statistics Canada publishes a confidence interval with the monthly employment change, and it is wide enough that a print the headlines call strong or weak is often statistically indistinguishable from no change at all. Read that interval before the number, then read the three-month trend and the participation rate together: employment falling because people stopped looking is a different labour market from employment falling because jobs disappeared.
