The federal minimum wage is the lowest wage at which employers may pay their employees. The Liberal government eliminated Canada's federal minimum wage in 1996. Each province and territory now sets their own minimum wage which range from $10.50 per hour to 12.50 per hour.

I am satisfied with current minimum wage.

Have a federal minimum wage for people under the age 21 to develop experience, but over 21 they are now on a federal living wage.

I believe that the issue is not minimum wage but people having to rely on minimum wage just to get by and support their family. I also believe that corporations that make billions yet pay their employees minimum wage should be forced to adjust their wages
@8VGSTXS4yrs4Y
No, but supplement income with Universal basic income.
@8VFVNTMNew Democratic4yrs4Y
It should be based on cost of living in that area
@8TWHRGW4yrs4Y
Minimum wage should be $15 an hour, regardless of age (minors should get $15/hour)
@8SCBZQK4yrs4Y
if they're over the age of 18 yes
@8RMZQCS4yrs4Y
No, an excessive minimum wage creates a barrier to entry for small businesses.
Yes, BUT, assist small businesses to pay for it
