Earlier today, President Traeger sent a letter to Premier Pallister to call for a $5 hourly wage increase for assisted living workers during this pandemic, in support of the Abilities Manitoba Campaign. Along with the call for this pay increase, President Traeger also called for increased stable funding to this sector, so that when this pandemic is over, workers will have a $15/ hour minimum starting wage.
