what ignorance you live in, NO wages set by what YOU think the costs of living are is nonsense, they  only work if they are based on a free market where the company can compete and survive and make a profit,..so small business increases prices, then we all pay more for everything thus we but less overall,, and that means a shrinking economy and job losses, and thos firms that sell outside of ontario cant just raise prices so they layoff people,, think before you spew the ignorance please
