Ontario fast food minimum wage, $17.20. California’s $20. And the cost of living there is higher. Our fast food places, and whatever you call the next tier is doing just fine - the damn things are everywhere. Hard to find something that’s not some kind of chain. Probably a whole lot of takeaway or delivery, but things seem to meet society’s needs without decimating budgets. Maybe it’s a balance of having real workers and moderating profits for the longer term?

- refurb 1y agoThe vast majority of fast food workers in Ontario are foreigners working on visas. And plenty of them are exploited and forced to kickback a part of their wages to the owner. The government does nothing and the owner gets below minimum wage workers. It’s shockingly common in Canada.
