Yes the tenuous link between welfare and minimum wage and poverty is link a Rubic's Cube

Not everyone can get it.

If a Canadian on welfare needs extra food they get a voucher that comes off their next cheque. How does that relate to food stamps?

the theory is that families that qualify for food stamps also qualify for every other state and federal income support (welfare)- its is informally called the "Walmart Tax".
.

See above for the context of these "foods stamps" that have you so puzzled.


if someone holds a job that they can only hold because the government is giving them support - then the business that employs that person is getting a government subsidy.

Horrible job results?

Ontario lost 80,000 jobs.

Didn't see Ford using the notwithstanding clause on that one.

Ontario and thus Canada are in for real hardship once this newest idiot in ontario gets through ruining the economy.

BC added 9,900 jobs in August.

I know that's probably pretty upsetting.

Not high paying union pipeline jobs . Now why would I ever think it is a bad thing if someone has a job ?
