Tom Fletcher, in his otherwise excellent assessment on the BC government’s callous handling of the poverty-stricken in this province, opines in part, saying “…anyone who still thinks jacking the minimum wage up to $15 an hour is a magic solution that won’t cost some entry-level jobs is clinging to a socialist dream world.”
The minimum wage in Australia is $16.87/hour. Last time I noticed, Australia was far from being a “socialist dream world”.
