The Provincial Government's Minimum Wage Panel is in Thunder Bay today. Several organizations including the Chamber of Commerce, Regional Food Distribution Association and Poverty Free Thunder Bay are taking part. Minister of Northern Development Michael Gravelle says it's an important issue and one the Minister of Labour will have to decide once recommendations are released. Members of the group Poverty Free Thunder Bay rallied in front of the Valhalla Inn before they spoke to the panel. Poverty Free Thunder Bay wants the wage to be raised to 14 dollars an hour.
