On April 1, 2023 the Canadian minimum wage will be raised from $15.55 to $16.65 per hour, to keep pace with inflation.
Federally regulated private-sector employers must adjust their payroll information with the new rate to ensure workers and interns are paid correctly as of April 1. Where the provincial or territorial minimum wage rate is higher than the federal minimum wage, employers must apply the higher rate.
