91When minimum wage goes up so does everything else. If they want to save people money & make living more affordable then drop the taxes on a lot of things.

33When you look at this historically, yes, prices go up, but at minor rate compared to the wage increase. Minimum wage increases are more effective at lifting more people out of poverty than tax cuts—period.

THE PAIKIN PODCAST: Is populism a threat to Canadian democracy?
80Another thing that would help a great deal would be for the news agencies to simply deliver the news instead of their opinions, they at this point are swaying hordes of people, some agencies are worse than others (CBC) being the leaders, but others aren’t far behind, time to eliminate the panels that are made up of biased individuals, OPINION is not NEWS, NEWS is about what is happening.They should be mandated to simply deliver the NEWS instead of putting their own spin on the matter.

27Slightly, yes, but it is still effective at lifting people out of poverty and increasing quality of life for low income earners.

Algoma Steel partners with armoured vehicle manufacturer
SooToday 21Algoma is American-owned; they do not care about the company that sold vehicles to ICE, and I doubt anyone that works there cares either.

SooToday 57These players and families pay thousands of dollars a year to play. A huge part of that cost is ice time, which includes helping to pay for operating costs of arena attendants. Occasionally, they may have to clean a bigger mess…that’s the job. Fine the team, make them clean it the next day, but for a team to lose a championship like this is beyond pathetic.

SooToday 71This matter should have been discussed with the team and an opportunity given to make things right before taking such drastic action. It's just not right and the NOHA should be held accountable.

67I think that the best way to restore faith in democracy is to bring back democracy instead of suppressing it all the time.

11The minimum wage ought to apply to everyone the same way regardless of age and it should apply to all kinds of work including farm labour. The minimum wage should be $30 per hour and at this rate we will not need any temporary foreign workers because Canadians will accept work at this pay rate. Any business that cannot afford to pay this wage should not be in business in Canada. Our workers should only be employed in businesses that are profitable and add significant value to their products. Everything else is a waste of the skill and education of our workforce, and a waste of our resources. Cheap products ought to be produced in a foreign country and imported. The $30 rate should also apply to all service workers. John HagopianWhitby

62SaPhzb they mean it's meant for young people starting in the workforce. Its not designed to have cars, mortgages and families with. Minimum wage jobs weren't made to be careers.
