That totally depends what field of work you are in.
Some industries are thriving whilst others are struggling.

You are best off looking at the various job sites and seeing how many job advertisements are listed.
That will give you a good idea of what it's like

Are you currently in Canada? If you aren't, you may want to consider Ottawa. The federal government does a lot of contract work.

One thing you have to realise is Canada is huge and the employment opportunities are very diverse from region to region.

The federal government does contract work in Ottawa?
Or that is where we are most likely to find the work?
