Canadians losing faith in economic ’miracle’





Factory worker Nelson Claros has little time for talk of the Canadian economic miracle.


The 50-year-old was laid off last year from his job of 22 years at a bus-assembly plant northwest of Toronto, and has since applied for 130 jobs. His best offer: A job at US$12 (HK$93) an hour, half his previous wage and not enough to pay his bills.


“Really there is a recession right now. They don’t call it a recession, but the companies are closing, there are a lot of layoffs. How can this be a miracle economy?” he asked.
