Abstract: The labour markets in both Canada and US experienced turmoil following the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper compares recent changes in gross labour flows and worker transitions between the labour markets of the US and Canada during Covid. Exploiting the longitudinal dimension of the Current Population Survey from the US and the Labour Force Survey from Canada, I measure worker reallocation and transition probabilities in different labour force states. I find significant crosscountry heterogeneity in worker flows in and out of some labour force states such as temporary unemployment and labour force marginal attachment.
