WINNIPEG – Manitoba families are working harder but the vast majority is struggling to get ahead, says a study by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (CCPA).
The study, Stuck in Neutral, finds 80 per cent of Manitoba families are putting more time in the paid workforce than they did a mere decade ago but they are taking home a smaller share of the income pie compared to a generation ago.
