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.

Should be increased but don’t allow businesses to increase prices, as they “claim” inflation. When it really means having to cut into their own profit margin. Offer them a business tax break incentive instead.
@B2LZCJT3mos3MO
Without a lot of minimum wage jobs the economy can plummet. I’m saying this I believe it depends on the work done.
@8RY4JPN4yrs4Y
No, we should remove minimum wage and intrude a Universal Basic Income (UBI)
@92GRS2N3yrs3Y
No, we should explore reducing indirect taxes instead
@8TWWMMJConservative4yrs4Y
No, more often than not raising minimum wage rather than reducing inflation prices jobs out leading to increased unemployment.
@8TBPL9L4yrs4Y
I believe all wages should be liveable but also adjusted for each career.
@8SXL7TS4yrs4Y
It should be different in every province/territory
@8Q9W2W34yrs4Y
No, it should be raised but by the provinces instead
@8NRXDJ24yrs4Y
No, but make multiple mandatory increases for amount of time employed
@8KX29LG4yrs4Y
Minimum wage should also be based on the company's revenue to take strain off of small businesses.
@8DZNDXK5yrs5Y
Yes, and there should be Guaranteed Basic Income
@97NRTW82yrs2Y
Only raise for inflation purposes.
@8ZT4CLR3yrs3Y
Yes, only for certain people who are proven to need it more.
@8VVWZN84yrs4Y
Should only increase if inflation goes up
