Can't find anything from the gov sites so it's unconfirmed, but the average hourly wage in AB is $27.80 which is about 58K.
Minimum wage is what I'd probably define as the working poor. That's the group that I'm concerned about.

In terms of a mean of 58k, it would be interesting to know if that number is caused by upward drag.
