Unemployment rates to be re-released

One week after Statistics Canada rolled out incorrect jobless numbers for July, it will take another stab at it Friday morning.

The figures released a week ago contained an error that suggested the economy only created a dismal 200 jobs last month.

The agency says the numbers due to be released at 8:30 a.m. will be correct this time.

When the error came to light, it had the Harper government scratching its head and prompted it to impose a temporary freeze in the processing of new claims for Employment Insurance.
