Manitoba to raise minimum wage to 9.50 this October
Labour and Immigration Minister Jennifer Howard announced a 50 cent increase to 9.50 per hour, effective October 2010, benefiting about 28,000 workers. Critics from CFIB argue the move shifts costs to businesses, though tax cuts since 1999 have saved Manitoba firms about 422 million annually.
