Try again Globe and Mail

Interesting bit of fluf in the G&B today. Says "job prospects" for young people are up. Well, speaking as a "young person", whatever that means, I'd like to say "bullshit". Not only does this totally unsubstantiated article not clarify what sectors are seeing this so-called surge in jobs, it uses weird math like '480K people found jobs between 1997 and 2004. Is 480K a lot for 5 years? Where did they find work? In what jobs? What pay? And remeber, there are all sorts of ways to interpret or measure the unemployment rate. Like, say, when someone just stops looking for work altogether.
