The so-called living wage, according to the Living Wage for Families Campaign in B.C., is $19.39 an hour, the amount a family needs to make to cover basic expenses. The calculation is based on a two-parent family with two children — the most common family unit in B.C. — with each parent working full-time, says the Living Wage for Families Campaign. Uptown includes retail, office and recreational facilities, as well as large common areas.
