The minimum wage in four provinces is going up today.
The rate in Ontario is rising by 65 cents to $17.20 an hour, an increase tied to inflation.
Saskatchewan’s minimum wage is going up by a dollar to $15, but it will still be the lowest in Canada, along with Alberta.
In Manitoba, the rate is going up by 50 cents to $15.80, a hike that follows a formula set in provincial law tied to the rate of inflation of the previous calendar year.
