"The employment climate in Canada is still a hot one, particularly in technology, driving continued confidence from the labour force. Employees remain in the driver's seat. But as the threat of a recession looms, we expect we may see a softening of employee demands as the supply and demand equation sways. What will be interesting, though, is how far the pendulum swings back in favor of the employer. We need to strike a new middle ground that we have not seen in quite some time.”
