Just over minimum wage? The thing is, it's not the MPs getting 200K who are getting the big chunk of the value you create with your labor. Start with the directors, VPs and walk towards the top in the private corporation you were working for. In case you in particular don't work for one of those, many if not most Canadians are so that's still valid. Why am I going on about it is because we're never gonna get out of this shit where essential labor is paid sub-living wages, among other problems, until we start focusing on where the lion's share of the surplus is going to. And it's not the MPs.
