    Note to author of this article: you forgot to mention if this increase of 1.1% is compared to the previous month, ie., May/08.

    This report probably is very inaccurate. Note in the US version of this news report they also mention: Payrolls dropped by 67,000 in April, versus the 28,000 previously reported. And, losses in May came to 62,000, rather than the 49,000 initially estimated. What that suggests is that June's report is being underreports by as much as May and April; and the true number is more like 75 to 95 K. What they also reported about a week ago was that US employers are planning to cut a lot more jobs.

    This is good news. It may not seem like it but it takes all the wind out of the sales of those who say we are tanking and there is a recession. Slow is still forward and that is good for the world. As for a lot of these other dumb comments why even bother to show ignorance?

    Please note what you said, and what you did not: The deficit with Canada, America's largest trading partner, fell by 10.6 per cent to $64.2 billion as U.S. exports, helped by the weaker [STRONGER ?] Canadian dollar, rose at a faster pace than imports from Canada. Because the CAN$ went up from 85 cent to parity, the VALUE of exports went UP by 15%, AND the real COST of imports went DOWN by 15%. But, since CAN has a US trade SURPLUS, CAN citzens were and are MUCH better off this year.
