Raising the minimum wage to $20/hour would narrow the gap between BC’s minimum and the living wage, benefiting some 350K workers in BC, living wage report authors @iglikaivanova.bsky.social and Anastasia French say.
Government measures can help close the gap they recommend.

We put out these wildfire postcards back in May. Sadly, events have made them very timely. Check ‘em out #SignedSearedDelivered 👇
🔥 This year’s wildfire season is already Canada’s 2nd-worst on record, with over 7.3M hectares burned.
Our postcards put this crisis front and centre, demanding that Ottawa hold fossil fuel companies accountable and make climate action a top priority.
