      Come to the Yukon, we need workers and we pay well.

      All you have to do is show up.

      no shit, what’s hard to believe is 20% of Canadians are receiving wage increases faster than inflation can keep up

      Well if you tell yourself it would be worse under the Conservatives it’s actually the most affordable as its ever been.

      Ah…..the same people that voted Liberals and thought their Fed jobs were saved?????

      But carney said affordability is better than it ever had been who’s lying here

      My rent is outpacing my income on it’s own, nevermind groceries, power, water, and transportation.

      Carney said Canadian are living the best cost of living in a decade. You just havnt experienced it yet.

      No sh**

      Government solution: more taxes, let’s keep raping the middle class (what middle class)

      cue all the apologist „but wages outpace inflation!“

      fine but in the last 5 years home and car insurance has gone up almost 19%. How many people’s pay has gone up similar in that time? Some have, absolutely but relate actual pay to actual cost of shit we buy regularly – which also varies by geography.

      You can throw general stats around all you want but when money coming in ends up being less than money coming out an you haven’t changed your household budget or in fact, cut back on discretionary spending/got rid of some things then that’s an issue. Many people sacrificing are on fixed rate mortgages too so don’t give me that bullshit about interest rates.

      Canadians have had to lower our standard of living more and more just to stay afloat, it’s bullshit. Maybe if government wasn’t so spineless and let various markets like the job market behave like the two-way street it’s supposed to we wouldn’t be in this mess.

      I fully admit to being an asshole but COVID should have resulted in many more businesses closing, not a government bailout of cheap labour. Let nature take it’s course in a proper market.

      My pay went up $1000 this year…

      Half of that got eaten up rent increase alone.

      Wage suppression via mass immigration is a hell of a thing, thanks Liberals!! /s

      the 10 cent raise i just got from my employer for the year whom has $9 billion and counting is really helping me afford that extra loaf of bread every week now

      I never thought I’d live to see a day where the Toronto Sun is the Canadian publication most consistently producing relevent news about what Canadians are genuinely experiencing, but here we are.

      They stepped up while the other ones all but stopped covering meaningful stories.

      Lol, you don’t need a poll for that – the STC data on incomes and spending categories says it all. And if you’re looking at the bigger data sets, by province – indexes, average prices.

      But sure, run a survey!

      I’m 30 working as a HD mechanic and buying a house is an impossible dream, let alone a real vacation

      Living in itself feels like a boiling frog experiment. How much more are people going to take? Mental health is at an all time low… I wouldn’t be surprised if suicide rates start going up. People are running out of options with little to no help available, regardless if help is being advertised, there is only so much a person can tolerate before giving up.

      That is because the bonuses and raises given by organisations do not match inflation.

    25. DulyNoted1 on

      I’ve been a crown employee for about 25 years and I don’t think our union contract has ever in that time provided an increase that matched the cost of living increase. We used to be well paid but over that amount of time you’re bound to struggle.

      What do you all expect? Canadians are really gullible and don’t have the backbone or organization to fix our corrupt economy that obviously just caters to the rich.
      We get ripped off almost every time we spend and just accept it.
      Watch how fast grocery prices would drop if coordinated boycotts were actually happening and sustained.
      Just keep complaining online and maybe things will change!

    27. TWreckx_Plays on

      It’s like the liberals are trying to ruin Canada, oh wait. They already did.

    28. heboofedonme on

      We got inflation at like 2.4% and grocery prices up 4+~ % and fuel prices same thing up from last year. My raises are no where close to that.
