Quebec minimum wage rises to $13.50, but some employees and employers both unsatisfied


 
MONTREAL --
Quebec's minimum wage rose to $13.50 an hour as of Saturday, but few in the province seem happy with the change.
The $0.40 increase has left minimum wage workers frustrated, saying it wasn't enough. Maxime Dmitrienko, a worker at NDG grocery store Esposito's, said the change won't change his situation.
“It doesn't reflect the cost of actual living wage, especially with the cost of prices for housing and rent in big cities like Montreal and Toronto,” he said. “It doesn't reflect a living wage.”
Dmitrienko said he fears the store's prices could rise to cover the wage increase, a worry echoed by his boss.
