Quebec election: Québec solidaire backs $15 minimum wage on Labour Day

GATINEAU — Québec solidaire would invest $100 million every year for five years to help businesses adapt to an increased minimum wage.
While in Gatineau on Monday, the party’s spokespeople unveiled their plan to raise the province’s minimum wage to $15 per hour starting on May 1, 2019.
Québec solidaire is therefore proposing swifter action than the Parti Québécois, which promised on Monday to gradually raise the wage over the course of its first term
