Reread your original sentence OMG!WTF! that got you to this point:

"Full time employment at our old minimum wage gets you above the low income cut off in Canada."

Do you still contend that's true? It can be. It's usually not. Unless you're living in a rural environment and/or working more than 40 hours a week, an employee making the old minimum wage would be below StatCan's LICO. There's far more people in urban areas making minimum wage and if you actually knew as much as you're trying to pretend, you'd realize that most minimum wage positions are not going to get the employee anywhere close to 44 hours a week.

It's pretty obvious you're focusing on the minute details and trying to bicker over really stupid things at this point instead of just admitting that your original assumption was not correct.
