For anyone living in Ontario working and making minimum wage you’re getting a whopping 10 cents an hour raise starting October 1st, lol
Most ppl wont realize there getting more money and minimum wage jobs are important like a store clerk and even some restaurants pay them minimum wage it sucks and everybody should be able to live a happy life not go to a food bank it’s insane
I consider myself lucky, I make more than minimum wage (so this doesn’t apply to me) but if I were to get this raise, being a part time worker, about 50ish hours a month, that would work out to $5.00/month more in income, lol
Try not to spend it all in one place!
This is a big part of why I don’t go to places like fast food restaurants. I dislike enabling employers wno won’t pay a living wage.
It’s $15.20 in British Columbia
With this raise the minimum wage will be $14.35/hour in Ontario
It was suppose to be over $15.00 by now but Doug Ford (The Premier of Ontario) froze the minimum wage after he was elected a few years ago.
Thats pretty cool, hoping 2 get a job soon, if I put in effort.
The problem is if that 10 cents puts you in a new tax bracket you pay more taxes and in the end probably lose more than you make anyway.
The Premier of Ontario (Doug Ford) announced today the minimum wage is going up to $15.00/hr on January 1st, 2022. The bad news is that a living wage is considered to be around $20.00/hr depending on where you live.
