5% after 20 years of stagnated wages is still unimpressive if you ask me. And those wages have gone up because workers just won’t work for less. But immigrants will. The government gets their tax dollars.
Obviously it’s more complex but the housing crises, wages, inflation, it’s all connected and relative to each other. We are so screwed
Most especially. There was a a short period through the height of COVID where there was some struggle, but wages have done very well in the last five years, before and after COVID.
The last five or so years has quite possibly been the strongest job market Canada has ever seen. Of course wages are going to do well.

Ah I guess it’s just me getting hosed then. That’s good information to have that everyone else’s wages were keeping up with the rampant inflation
Way to go, idiot. Just make more money and you’ll be fine.
