Ben Lobb is urging for the federal government to issue a pay freeze for all MPs as a form of unity during the tough economic climate the COVID-19 pandemic has created.
The Huron-Bruce Member of Parliament says its his ideal that the present-day government stop the scheduled pay increase for all MPs in recognition of the times, similarly to what the country did during the last economic downturn.
Lobb notes should the wage increase occur most MPs have committed to donate the difference to organizations in their respective ridings and he’d likely do the same.
