Equivalent meals for BK will be closer to $5-7 here. Yes we have sandwiches in the $1.50 range but that's a small burger. I assume by "packs" you mean with fries and drinks.

JustinTrudeau 2,419 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 While I don't mind raising the minimum wage, I almost dropped my fork when I saw the news at work during lunch (we have a tv with CP24 on). That's such a huge jump from the current minimum wage though. By 2018, $14, and by 2019, $15. I do wonder what will happen to small businesses, I live in a smallish town and I would hate to see some of them being affected by this. Spoiler And I thought $18 was a lot for an IT entry job with years of schooling under my belt but compared to the new minimum wage... But it's not just the minimum wage she's changing, it's the proposed legislation: Among the proposed changes are the requirement that after five years with the same employer, the minimum vacation entitlement for workers would rise to three weeks per year. All workers would also be given 10 personal emergency leave days a year, and a minimum of two of those days must be paid. (Currently, only employees of large companies are entitled to this.) http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-minimum-wage-announcement-1.4137339 I fell down the stairs once as an actor.

Private sector is where the money is at! I know. I always figured that was the reason for abnormally high doctor wages in US Here in Canada the Private segments of Health Care also see very high wages like in Dental and Vision care. Our fam Doctors and Surgeons and specialists under Government still make 6 figure salaries so they make more than enough I think! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
