I believe the actual labour problem would be much worse than this since there is a number of people who are working part time with even lower wages, and a number of people who are unemployed at all.. t1 U5 G9 Q0 S# K3 L' V, i  ?- h

Our minimum wage for a full time employee for our province is $9.5 Canadian dollars per hour(probably around 71 HK dollars).  So as long as you are full time employed, the employer will needs to pay you $9.5 per hour (even you are just working in McDonalds).

Honestly even right now, it would be easier for a person to find a job and get better pay in Canada or even US than in HK.
