If you want an honest number from unemployment you need an honest way to measure unemployment. The way it's done now is off of employment insurance benefits. It would appear to be dropping not because more jobs are added. Look at the jobs reports it's all part time gains and full time losses for some time now. What you're seeing is employment benefits expiring now which is generally the case 1-2 years after  a boom in employment insurance cases. When you're benefits expire you become employed automatically. Doesn't mean you've found a job it simply means you're not on benefits, therefore you must be working. Then you look at the jobs figures. Start of month they look great then They start downgrading and moving "goalposts" and you're left with a poor number. Same with the USA.  It's an absolute joke the way it's calculated.
