Will they find work in the '90s?

Article Abstract:

More than 1.5 million Canadians were out of work in Jun 1993, making Canada's unemployment rate of 10.5% the highest it has been since the 1982 recession. Structural changes in Canada's economy during the 1980s eliminated many high-paying jobs and burdened the social-welfare system in the 1990s.
