If you find yourself in front of a Walmart or Starbucks
in British Columbia on the 15th of any month this year, you just might find yourself amid a new and growing campaign to raise the minimum wage. Activists
across B.C. are hitting the streets in the Fight for 15 campaign, endorsed by the B.C. Federation of Labour and supported by individuals and community groups throughout the province. Organizers are planning
events for the 15th of every month until the provincial
minimum wage is increased to $15 an hour.
