Ontario's Liberal government is raising the minimum wage to $11 an hour effective June 1. The increase of 75 cents an hour was announced today by Premier Kathleen Wynne.
The Liberals say they will introduce legislation to tie future increases to the rate of inflation. If passed, future increases would be announced on April 1 and go into effect on Oct. 1.
Wynne said this year's 75 cent increase will account for inflation since 2010, when the previous Liberal government froze the minimum wage.
Anti-poverty activists and labour groups had been lobbying for an increase in the rate to $14 an hour, but Labour Minister Yasir Naqvi said that would be "too much" for businesses to handle and could prompt some to cut jobs.
