In 2023, the employment in the Canadian Land Transport and Transport via Pipelines sector stood at 1.00 billion hours. The forecasted data for the period from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady, albeit slow, growth trend. The value is expected to grow from 1.01 billion hours in 2024 to 1.03 billion hours by 2028.
