Big business is full of entitled babies. The minimum wage needs to be $21

Tie minimum wage to general CoL since 1980, and it currently would be something like $28/hr.

Tie minimum wage to a specific CoL such as rental costs, which are governed by the one-third rule, and since 1980 it would have risen to about $38/hr in cities like Kelowna, and likely half again more for places like Vancouver.
