Statistics Canada releases monthly labour statistics. Given Trumps newly implemented tariffs, there should soon be a drastic change in Canada's unemployment rate. What will that unemployment rate be?
I chose March, since I assume it will take awhile for the tariffs to start being enforced and for the employers to react. I chose the unemployment rate, because I couldn't find a reliable release of the GDP per capita statistic for Canada.
I will be using the following page, which lists Seasonally Adjusted Unemployment:

The current December 2024 Seasonally Adjusted Unemployment rate was 6.7%. During COVID, it hit a peak of 13.7%. March 2024 was 6.1%.
The March 2025 labour force survey will be release April 4 2025:
