Interesting article about wages & cost of living.

http://www.bayshorebroadcasting.ca/news_item.php?NewsID=60999

"nine per cent of Ontario's workforce is working for minimum wage -- that is more than double what it was nearly a decade before."

Less jobs overall , but more of them are minimum wage.
