Oh literally building wealth as a community:
Community land trusts, housing co-operatives, worker ownership, living wage programs, and other flagship initiatives of the community wealth building (CWB) movement are all finding their way into government policy, with each promising to keep the wealth created by a community circulating in that community.
We’re compensating and getting creative about getting by.
Aww. Good on Premium Meats:
The cash, with $100,000 paid annually over the next 10 years, will come from Premium Meats.
“They’ve been a supplier to us for six years, and, after a fundraising event, they asked what they could do and we chatted,” Wilson said Friday. “It all happened in a manner of days. It’s such a meaningful gift. And it’s over 10 years, which means we can count on it.”
I’m now less pessimistic. This is a good thing.
I feel like jobs like these are passion jobs. Or employers feel like if it’s something you’re passionate about and care about, then you should be willing to do it for less.
For example, had a few friends work for the Canucks. I’m pretty sure the family who owns Canuck’s are billionaires, but because the people who work there are passionate about the sport and the team, they get away with below living wages for the privilege of just being around.
Obviously not the same, but… yeh. We under pay people who care and feel indebted to their clients and the work they love.
Canada is a too big and diverse a place to be throwing around national averages like that. I think I’d like to see the increase and average/median split by city, suburban, and rural. Preferably provincially. When we look it in all those categories are they all increasing 11% or are some increasing more and others less?
In its ruling, the board ordered the company to pay the tenant $2,515 in costs to cover hotel bills from when they had to leave the apartment the pesticide treatments, medical treatment for their daughter, moving and legal costs. The tenant still hasn’t been paid, although, in an email Friday afternoon, the company said the payment was being processed and would be delivered this month.
Paying $2500 does not seem proportional to what they had to go through and having a young kiddo involved too. For the owner of a high rise that’s not a deterrent for them to not do it again. Two and a half years just for that. Yikes. Bed bugs can fuck right off.
GDP up, mostly government spending, per capital gdp and productivity is down. Would this affect a BoC rate decrease?
