Tech Jobs Growth in Canada“Canada’s economy will create at least 218,000 tech jobs between now and 2020, but lacks the people to fill them, says a new report from a not-for-profit think tank.
Out of 527,000 students who graduated in Canada in 2015, only 6 per cent — 29,000 — graduated from an IT field, the report found. Canada would have to graduate around 43,000 IT students per year to keep up with job growth.
That means we are 14,000 tech graduates per year short - that’s where RED comes in.

“Job growth in Canada, Feb. 2015 to Jan. 2016. IT jobs grew more than four times as quickly as other jobs.“ (Chart: ICTC)

Toronto & Vancouver“In Toronto, CBRE said there are now 98,000 people employed in the tech sector, 11.7% of all office employment. It says downtown west and Liberty Village have become the heart of the tech sector in the city,due to tenant demand for what is called“brick and beam” space.
Vancouver has 34,000 tech workers that make up 12 per cent of the office workforce. The go-to sub markets in British Columbia’s largest city have been Yaletown and Gastown as tech users look for the same type of spaceas in Toronto.
