Yes, there is a massive labour shortage in sectors such as healthcare and the skilled trades: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/committees/cimm-nov-25-2024/labour-shortages.html
Youth unemployment has to do with the particularities of students looking for temporary jobs in the services sector and the lack of training opportunities https://lmic-cimt.ca/the-state-of-youth-employment-in-canada/ https://policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/november-2024/youth-employment-opportunities/
