Yep, I agree as raising wages will raise the prices too..
Instead of raising the wages, if the affordability (inflation under control) is increased then even minimum wage people can get benefited..
Just like rent control, other basic needs prices to be controlled..

Immigrants mostly vote for LIBERALS, especially in ON . Both provincially ( Kathlyne Wynne ) and Federally ( Justin Trudeau ). They are a HUGE vote bank for Liberals.
Immigrants mostly do Minimum wage jobs. Both the educated and uneducated immigrants. So no wonder Wynne is raising the minimum wage.
In a way I am happy for our immigrant doctors, engineers and other immigrant professionals who are doing minimum wage jobs, at least they will make $ 15/hr.
Its not about Immigrants - they already got immigrants votes - cause all immigrant like liberals over conservative due to friendly immigration policies
This move is mainly to gain vote from locals, beside major cities there are big chunk of locals who are low level laborer - by increasing min salary they will gain their trust
yes, immigrant work in beginning stage for minimum wages but mostly we are hard working people and we go up in positions by improving skills.
Now this locals will gain $4 extra so they will happily support liberal , they can spend money on weed/alcohol /smoke
Heil Liberal for supporting ghettos
