And most of the increase will go to cover increases in the minimum wage as some city workers are not union represented, not part of a collective bargaining agreement and thus paid minimum wage. Part of the money, although a very small part, will probably go towards covering the costs of adjusting payroll records to accommodate higher wages and increased deductions for tax, CPP and EI.
