SUMMARY

This enactment aligns the federal minimum wage rate with the general minimum wage rates established from time to time by the provinces and the territories. The rate paid to any particular employee is that based on the employee's province or territory of employment. The Governor in Council retains the authority to establish a minimum wage rate that can apply to employees on a provincial or territorial basis and that differs from the rate set by a province or territory.
