Amid ongoing tariff tensions between Canada and the U.S., hundreds of job seekers and dozens of employers came together in Lethbridge today for a job fair.
Teamworks Career Centre brought around 1,200 job seekers for the 2026 fall season. But with new 25- and 50-per-cent tariffs now in effect between the two nations, are employers offering the same number of opportunities they have in previous years? BCN’s Heidi Echavarria asked the General Manager of Teamworks whether the tariff situation is having an impact on the local job market, and this is what she said.
The next job fair will be held on April 1, 2027.
