Under the proposed standards, companies would have to pay workers 120 per cent of the province’s minimum wage, not including tips, from the time they accept a ride-hailing or delivery assignment through its completion.

The rate is higher than B.C.’s minimum wage – currently set at $16.75 – because it would not apply to the time spent waiting between assignments, according to the Ministry of Labour.

    Wow, that was a depressing walk down memory lane. (Except for the shareware games. God I miss those weird 1 level demos. Almost bought Jazz Jackrabbit the other month just to see what the other levels were actually like.)

    I think watching American politics, my standards of poor government have dropped significantly. Good to be reminded.

    Also, thanks for sharing the name backstory. I’m relieved I don’t have to surrender too much of my nerd cred.
