MPP Calls For Hike In Minimum Wage
Kenora-Rainy River MPP Sarah Campbell says people can't survive on minimum wage. Demonstrations were held across the province earlier this week, calling on the government to bump it up from $10.25 to 14-dollars per hour. She says people are finding increasingly challenging to put food on the table and adds, raising the minimum wage is the best way to combat poverty.
