Either way, I'm not really going to get into a discussion on the economics of restaurants based on satirical bait. Although 'Grilled Disappointment' is great. I'm totally stealing that.
"PAY SERVERS MORE OMG!!"
They already get the same minimum wage as most and tips that they dodge taxes on. They're doing alright.

As far as the tax dodge, I was reading an article about this over the weekend. There was a restaurant in Nova Scotia and they were appealing a CRA decision on tips. Because the tips were coming from electronic payments, there was a record of them. The restaurant took the position that they were not required to hold back taxes/CPP/EI and CRA disagreed. They went to tax court and the courts sided with CRA. Not sure what that means overall, but the electronic payment scenario makes things a lot more traceable than leaving cash in the folder.
