That's 8 months in a row of strong jobs gains in Canada.

"The labor market was quite strong in the month of September," said Ahu Yildirmaz, vice president and co-head of the ADP Research Institute. "Although the goods producing sector struggled this month, we saw significant growth in many industries. Trade, for example, continued its steady growth adding the most jobs the sector has seen all year."
