The current minimum wage in Canada is a factor of the province in question, depending on cost of living and economic conditions. In 2024, British Columbia has the highest minimum wage at $16.75 per hour; Saskatchewan has one of the lowest, at a per-hour rate of $14.00. This pay is quite important for workers, especially in high-cost areas like Ontario and British Columbia, where even minimum wage jobs may struggle to cover basic living expenses. The minimum wage usually undergoes periodic adjustment to keep up with the rates of inflation and economic alteration to guarantee that workers have a decent way of life.
