StatsCan finds fault in formula-driven raises

Black Press Media Staff

Editor: Re: 鈥淩ichter calls for review,鈥� (The Times, Jan. 24).

Perhaps everyone should take a look at comments from StatsCan regarding the pay hikes of the Calgary city council.

The Calgary Herald of Jan. 25 states that 鈥淪tatsCan says formula faulty for determining council pay hikes.鈥�

It seems unethical that councils should determine their own salaries when the electorate actually pays their way to the trough through taxation. I wonder how many other employees in the general workforce dictate their own salaries?

I hope you鈥檒l stay on top of this and provide readers with some good information about how council pay rates are determined.

Laura Addinall,
