About half of Canadians are having anxiety about their ability to change jobs or find comparable employment, but such worries are even higher in Alberta despite a strong job market, says MNP Ltd. Nationally, 55 per cent of working people polled for MNP by Ipsos said they worried about job mobility and opportunities, much higher than Grant Bazian, president of MNP, was expecting.

Alberta Jobs, Economy, Trade, and Immigration putting out its monthly September figures. 

The labour force survey showed that just under 2.7 million people were employed in Alberta last month, an increase of 75,700 from September of 2025. 

The review also found an increase in the number of workers by 23,100 when comparing last month to the month before.

Those figures, however, buck the national trend where the number of jobs actually fell by 68,000, or .3 percent August to September.

Albertans are among the Canadians who are most worried about the security of their jobs and income, according to a new report from consumer insolvency firm MNP Ltd.

The report was based on a survey conducted by the polling firm Ipsos on behalf of MNP.

From a lack of emergency savings to concerns over artificial intelligence (AI), the report says Albertans are disproportionately anxious about a number of factors contributing to financial uncertainty compared to the rest of the country.
