Minimum wage increases in Ontario today. But is it enough to keep up with inflation?

The boost in minimum wage will reflect the increased cost of living but still isn’t enough to live off of according to some economic researchers.

I'm regularly asked what I do as a City Councillor and how it compares to the work done by MPs, MPPs, School Board Trustees, and the Chief of Police - and how to get in touch with all of these folks. My staff and I developed this resource for Hamilton, which we hope will help. #HamOnt

In what may be a Canadian first, a human rights tribunal has affirmed the right of an immunocompromised person to seek workplace accommodations.

Disability advocates are praising the decision, saying it broadens the concept of accessible workplaces.

Ontario’s civil justice system is in trouble. Proposed changes will add red tape, make settlements harder to achieve, waste resources, and eliminate the most important tool litigants have to gather information for their case.

A decisive win for our wrongfully dismissed client! The Court of Appeal rejected the employer's attempt to challenge our trial victory and it granted our cross-appeal - increasing the damages the employer has to pay.

"Hamiltonians got played by cynical property speculators who never gave a damn about the stewardship of these shared assets, and the city wasn’t bold enough to do anything about it." #HamOnt
We can’t allow demolition by neglect to rob us of our heritage
Recent building collapse was a failure of vision, a failure of imagination and a failure of stewardship.
