ECONOMIC STUDIES Population Growth Will Remain Positive The challenges of workforce attraction and retention remain Based on the projections of the Institut de la statistique major concerns. Despite an unemployment rate that is expected du Québec (ISQ), on average, population growth in the to remain higher than pre-pandemic levels for the long term, manufacturing regions in 2020 and 2021 will be slightly below some business sectors are actively seeking labour. Furthermore, that of the last two years (graph 2). The Mauricie region will the current climate has accentuated difficulties in hiring foreign see the lowest growth, primarily due the increased aging of its workers that existed prior to the pandemic. As shown in graph 4, population compared to that of its counterparts. labour replacement indexes have been below 100% for several years, signalling a lack of young workers to fill vacancies left by GRAPH 2 retiring workers. This is putting pressure on the labour market Population growth will slow somewhat by narrowing the gap between labour supply and demand. For Average 2018-2019 Average 2020f–2021f example, Mauricie will post an index of 62% in 2021, meaning that for each group of 100 workers between the ages of Centre-du-Québec 0.7 0.5 55 and 64 that leaves the labour market, there will be 62 people Chaudière-Appalaches 0.5 0.4 who are of age to replace them (20 to 29). Compared with 2016, this will represent a drop of 24 points for this index.

While net migration Quebec as a whole Mauricie Estrie Chaudière-Appalaches Centre-du-Québec is on an upward trend in these four regions, it will not be sufficient to sustain long-term population growth. Natural f: Institut de la statistique du Québec projections, based on the baseline scenario for 2019 Sources: Institut de la statistique du Québec and Desjardins, Economic Studies growth is forecast to become negative by 2026 in Estrie, Chaudière-Appalaches and Centre-du-Québec.

The Labour Markets Will Gradually Recover The labour markets for the manufacturing regions have been In addition, a brief overview of interregional migration hard hit by the public health and economic crisis.

The labour market is gradually making up for lost ground, and job creation has risen in all of the manufacturing regions since July. However, only the Chaudière-Appalaches region has made GRAPH 3 up its losses, even exceeding its pre-pandemic employment level Interregional migration for the manufacturing regions in (graph 5 on page 3). Unemployment rates in the other regions 2018–2019 will return to lower levels by late 2021 (graph 6 on page 3).

  • For Hurried Caregivers
    Handy Resources FOR HURRIED CAREGIVERS Guide for CAREGIVERS OF SENIORS IN THE ESTRIE REGION Acknowledgments The Table de concertation des aînés de l’Estrie (regional roundtable on seniors) is proud to present caregivers in Estrie with this directory, which should serve as a handy guide for a long time to come. The roundtable would like to thank all those who contributed in so many ways to developing this guide for the benefit of caregivers. Many thanks, in particular, to all those who have taken part in our Advisory Committee, namely France Lebrun, Caroline Giguère, Geneviève Côté, Jacinthe Garant, Marie-Ève Nadeau, Marie-Pierre Laurent, Michel Couillard, Sylvia Wheeler, Julie Grenier, Ginette Mercier, Christine Meunier and Louise Tremblay. Thank you for your continued dedication throughout the process. Special thanks go to the one hundred or so consulted caregivers who provided us with insight into the various dimensions of the guide’s production. We would also like to thank our project leaders Micheline Bouchard and Géraldine Lansiaux, as well as Fanie Lebrun, who supported the project during the leadership transition period. This guide was produced with the financial participation of L’APPUI pour les proches aidants d’aînés de l’Estrie and the region’s seven territorial roundtables on seniors. Background This regional guide for caregivers of seniors is the result of regional coordination between organizations that provide services to caregivers, on one hand, and the region’s roundtables on seniors, on the other. Over the years, guides have been produced in a number of Estrie’s MRCs, but none had comprehensively covered the services available throughout the region.
