I am still amazed at the fact that the minimum wage was so low. In Ontario, the general minimum wage is $10.25 increased in March 2010 from what used to be $9.50 . The student minimum wage (which applies to students under the age of 18 who work 28 hours a week or less when school is in session or work during a school break or summer holiday) is $9.60 increased from what used to be $8.90.
