employer sends 2nd offer letter after signing, claims mistake was made

I and my small group of co-workers were recently transitioned from one line of business to another, as they are shutting down the former line of business. Before training for our new position we signed an offer letter with our new hourly rate. Shortly thereafter we got another email from HR saying that the first offer had a mistake in it and to please sign the new offer letter at a reduced rate. If we don't sign the new deal are they obligated to pay us the original rate? Can they rescind the offer all together? Our meeting with HR is in 2 hours. This is in Canada BTW, any help appreciated.
