Nobody is signing up for minimum wage jobs, but instead of multi-million dollar businesses increasing wage, they are pressuring the government in my country to bring in more immigrants to stop “wage-inflation”.

So in my local city in Canada has problems with the “labor-shortage”. Big corp CFOs were having a meeting with the city/province government saying these ridiculous points they mentioned with the government: ​ We need more immigrants to stop wage inflation Before the pandemic 200 people wanted to sign up for our (minimum wage) jobs, now only 40 people and that is “scary”. Low birth rates are going to cause more inflation if we don't bring in more immigrants to populate the city We made 14 million dollars before the pandemic, now we only make 7 million dollars due to many workers quitting and not being able to meet demand. Instead of increasing wage for hardworking citizens. It is apparently cheaper to exploit vulnerable immigrants. I am sickened but happy the COVID happened. It really has exposed the absolute malice of millionaires.
