The unemployment rate across the region saw a slight rise last month.

The Four County Labour Market Planning Board in its monthly number crunch says the Stratford-Bruce Peninsula Economic Region hit a 3.7 per cent unemployment rate in November with the biggest drop seen in construction and manufacturing sectors.

Gains were seen in the services producing sector as well as in health care and social assistance.

A drop in the goods producing sector is being pointed towards the change in season.
