That’s according to a news release issued by Karen Christiansen, a Kelowna-based accountant with the Chartered Professional Accountants of B.C. “At the low-point in June, the region shed nearly one-in-ten jobs compared to the previous year, a loss of 23,200 positions,” she wrote. “Thankfully, certain sectors experienced a strong recovery over the past seven months and by November employment in the region was down by just 2.5 per cent.” Employment in the goods sector was up 11.4 per cent by November 2020 versus November 2019. That growth was led by natural resources with 20 per cent more jobs added this year so it now employs 8,000 people in the region.
