Context: House Hansard - 113 - Oct/19/22
Mr. Jagmeet Singh (Burnaby South, NDP)

Mr. Speaker, New Democrats have a rich tradition of calling out institutions that end up exploiting or hurting people. It is clear that the Government of Canada sets the mandate. Now, this very same Bank of Canada's governor has stated to employers that they are discouraged from increasing wages to keep up with inflation, which is ludicrous because there is absolutely no evidence that high wages have in any way contributed to inflation. In fact, wages have not kept up with inflation historically. Does the Prime Minister agree with the Bank of Canada's discouraging employers from increasing wages to keep up with inflation?
