I'm Canadian and our min. wages vary by province (which is smart, considering the vastly different costs of living in each region), but in B.C., minimum wage is CAD$8/hr. Which equals, like, US$0.73, but the prices of many things in Canada are more or less the same as in America, just in Canadian dollars, so proportionately, our min. wage is a fair bit higher.
$5 is ridiculous! Do many employers (i.e. fast food chains, etc.) actually exercise this minimum?
