Mr. Speaker, I offer my congratulations to the member.
Currently, there is no federal minimum wage. That is the first issue that needs to be challenged.
The second issue is to implement a federal minimum wage that allows those people in those jobs to afford the basics in life. In Saskatoon the actual living wage is $16.47 an hour. Many people who are living on minimum wage have more than one job. Although a minimum wage of $15 an hour would be a place to start, as is the case in Alberta, we need to first implement a federal minimum wage.
