I think mininum wage should increase to 10.00
The reasoning behind this is: for example tim hortons. tim hortons can afford to have roll up to win, to allow their customers to possibly win large prizes of a great ammount. but only pay their employees mininum wage. Please let poverty in canada be a thing of the past! please.
