More people in Greater Victoria working last month

Greater Victoria's unemployment rate fell to 4% last month, down from 4.4% in October. The numbers from Statistics Canada show there were 208,200 people working in November, up from 204,600 in October.
 
An increase in the number of people working in food services, financial industries and real estate has helped bolster the rate.
 
Our region now has the fourth lowest unemployment rate in Canada, after the Quebec regions of Gatineau, Sherbrooke and Quebec City.
