Discuss the economic and political transformations that have contributed to the difficulties young workers are facing today as they search for increasingly elusive secure and well compensated, permanent jobs.

Matters of work are a primary concern for most young Canadians today. One of the recurring themes is
the difficulty of finding a “good job”—one that is permanent and offers security. Social analysts have
identified this as a major crisis within the labour market today. Previous generations did not face such
a degree of difficulty in trying to launch their careers and establish themselves in the labour market.
Discuss the economic and political transformations that have contributed to the difficulties young
workers are facing today as they search for increasingly elusive secure and well compensated,
permanent jobs. Are there any indications that the labour market will improve or continue to worsen
for young workers in the near future?
