VIDEO: Minimum wage is going up, but it’s still nowhere near a living wage
96Minimum wage was never meant to be a living wage.It was an introductory wage to the work force.And you wonder why everything keeps going up.

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.

SooToday 61Good luck to all candidates in all races. Each person deserves credit for making their lives public in order to serve.Mr. Shoemaker and several counsellors have taken some deserved criticism and a lot of undeserved criticism. There are so many things that municipal leaders simply cannot control, like the past two winters.Keep your minds open, citizens. Listen to what each candidate has to say. Don't listen to unfounded rumours. May we be served well.

Shoemaker confirms he will run for mayor again in October
SooToday 54I don't know why anyone would want to be on City Council. The insults, the incessant and ludicrous accusations of corruption, the ridiculous expectations! Nobody gets rich doing this and it's a lot harder than you think to be constantly accused of being at best incompetent and at worst things that aren't suitable for putting in print. I encourage all the keyboard warriors who constantly attack council to run for council or at least serve on a municipal board or committee. Get out from behind your keyboard, stop moaning, complaining, and attacking, and do something constructive. And one final...just because you see a lot of negative comments about mayor and council on Sootoday doesn't mean everyone in the city feels the same way. This is not a representative sample of the people of Sault Ste Marie.

73So true and everyone should be asking this very question. The truth will come out and Ford knows this and because he is trying to line his wagon wheel of donors don't be surprised he is calculating his next needless election campaign call.

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

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.
