The city's jobless rate is remaining pretty much stable -- the latest numbers from Stats Canada show our rate last month was 6.1-percent -- down ever so slightly from 6.3 in March.
By comparison there was a spike in the provincial numbers -- the provincial unemployment rate jumped to 9.5-percent in April from 8.8 the previous month.
The national jobless rate remained steady at eight percent in April.
