Living Wage

This webinar took place on January 16, 2025. A thoughtful discussion on the intersection of policy, economics and social welfare as we explore why living wages matter for both individuals and the communities they live in. In November 2024, the Alberta Living Wage Network (ALWN) released a report with updated living wage rates. In this webinar, ALWN’s Coordinator & Economist, Ryan Lacanilao spoke about the findings of the report and explored the evidence supporting and opposing a living wage. He discusses how a living wage affects not only workers, but also broader social systems and what this means for FCSS programs. Gain insight into the direct and indirect effects of living wages on local communities, the workforce and public service programs.
