Canada Oct 2018 net employment change 11.2K vs 10K expected

Canadian employment report on 02.11.2018.

• Employment change prior 63.3K
• Unemployment rate 5.8% vs 5.9% exp, prior 5.9%
• Full time change 33.9K vs prior -16.9K
• Part time change -22.6K vs prior 80.2K
• Participation rate 65.2% vs 65.4% prior

Not a great deal of reaction yet, but I quite like the report, the rotation from part into full time jobs,albeit with a small slower participation rate.
Trying a small USDCAD short @ 1.3080.
