https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/restaurant-industry-worker-shortage-1.5382346

there are so many gems.

quote:

Restaurant owners and industry associations say they won't be able to rectify the problem without substantially increasing immigration to Canada, loosening the rules about who can move here to work in hospitality.

We want slaves!

quote:

"It's been very tough," said Bhagwani, who has opened dozens of food establishments in the Toronto area, including the Amaya chain of Indian restaurants. "I had to set up a central kitchen because I could not place chefs or cooks in each restaurant." Though he said he's offering competitive salaries, he's perennially shorthanded and actively recruiting.

Bhagwani said the housing shortage is particularly hard on his kitchen staff. "They used to pay $1,200 for a basement apartment; now they pay $1,800."

Why not simply increase salaries and let free market forces correct the problem?

Pay has gone up, said Ian Tostenson, president and CEO of BC Restaurant and Food Services Association." For a kitchen worker, three or four years ago wages were $13 to 14, now they're $19 or $20."

My dozens of restaurants won't run themselves :qq:

We're paying literally doezens of quarters per hour over minimum wage and astill can't find a head chef :qq:

quote:

Some restaurants are turning to tech solutions to fill staffing gaps. Toronto entrepreneurs Erika Mozes and Josh Karam created an app called Hyr to connect restaurants that are short of staff with workers who can fill in on a per-shift basis.

gig economy to the rescue!


TL;DR burn down your favorite restaurant

I know the larger low income housing complexes are often harmful to both the residents of said complexes and also the surrounding community. People, especially children, have a much higher likelihood of overall success in life if they're instead living in low income housing that is more dispersed and less segregated from the rest of the community. Would a smaller complex such as that one suffer from the same issues?

yes and even medium density mixed income communities struggle with segregation between the social housing and market housing segments if it isnt done properly. people put up their own barriers, whether physical or otherwise. we do a really bad job in Canada of truly mixed income social housing communities, there are only a few examples.

I worked in a social housing townhouse complex that is gonna get demolished soon. it was gonna get replaced initially with a truly mixed income community as per some planning documents I found but by the time it went public a year later it had changed to move all these people who live in townhouses into a single high rise and the rest will be market rent townhouses.

A LRT route being planned beside the neighbourhood had nothing to with that, Im sure.

do you have any thoughts on the regent park/st. james town revitalization in toronto?

it looks like they want to do something similar to alexandra park, but instead of proceeding with it they've been letting the units moulder and in some cases literally collapse with a few residents left in abject slum conditions

st. James town is doing some good things with their wraparound services but the big problem with this is that these services primarily help people navigate the challenges of poverty or are bandaids for the symptoms of poverty. as you alluded to, the money for actually maintaining the buildings isnt there. its very difficult to live a full life when one of your most important base needs is hosed up, you are not upwardly mobile economically at all, and you are surrounded by the numerous social issues that come with poverty.
