It's OK to come to work and explore Canada when you're 18 - 30 years old. Then you have to choose - If you don't want a family - STAY, and if you do want a family - LEAVE AND NEVER LOOK BACK BEFORE YOU TURN 40!
I don't know where they get these numbers. The hourly rate for manufacturing went down compared to 25 years ago. At Ford starting rate 30 years ago was $25. Now only $22. Most manufacturing jobs are $16 to $24 same like 25 years ago. The minimum wage did go up so now almost everyone makes minimum wage. I have a feeling people are working 2 jobs just to get by. Canada has mostly service industry which is low pay. Canada living standards for the young and starting out is the worst in generations. Well off are the richest ever. The computer technology salaries are the same as 20 years ago unless you move to California.
I really don't know. I only know what I have experienced being in Canada for the last 40 years. Before people worked hard and they got somewhere. A house a cottage etc. It was a place where everyone could create a good life. The last 5 years it really changed. The Canadians that had assets got richer than ever before. The wages of simple manufacturing jobs where people made money no longer pay a 3rd of what they use to pay. Minimum wage 30 years ago was 4 times less than say working at Ford. Now the minimum wage crept up to almost the manufacturing wage. The manufacturing wage went down compared to 30 years ago but the houses went up 10X in that time. So people that want to come here and start from scratch is much more difficult. They cant go to work for these jobs. This is why we have labour shortage. If you look at it closely they are all the minimum low paying jobs that is only good for students. You can't live on these wages. This inflation if you look at it is mostly tied to the oil. Gasoline when I was working 20 years ago was around 30 cents a litter and I was making much more than now. When oil goes down magically the prices of things go down. A lot of the things like cloths are the cheapest ever, fast fashion. The products because of Amazon and everyone having access to cheap products because of internet that I was selling 20 years ago I can't even sell for half price. The brand names got more expensive endorsement cost more so you give your money to the rich. Canada is not a good place any more. Most people that come here are the refugees, rich or from 3rd world countries. Europeans that I know that are older went back to their countries. It is a safe country though. But people if they have not made it will probably never own anything and work just to live unless they get lucky, get a really high paying job, or start their own business. Banks by raising the interest rates are getting the most money ever from the average person. But that might not work out in their favour in the long run as people and businesses will start to default on their loans in about 2 years where most fixed mortgages are under 2%. Sticker shock at renewal at 300% higher. They should have lowered interest rates to 0%. Would be much better for everyone. They did the damage already lowering interest rates and they just cant raise them without causing lots of big problems.

Most men and women do not do the same kind of jobs. More men are plumbers, electricians, construction workers etc. which have higher pay than waitresses and office workers.
I'm sorry but you cannot compare women's earnings to men's earnings carte blanche, when men predominantly occupy dangerous / high risk jobs that pay substantially higher wages. Take commercial deep sea divers servicing oil rigs as an example. There would be very, very few women if any in a high earning position such as this...
That’s a fair point. It is worth considering the ratio of high risk jobs to knowledge or service jobs let’s say. Are there enough high risk jobs to really skew the entire graph?
@@MakeThatChange Yes...Mining, Oil and Gas, Heavy Construction and Forestry...While there are women in those industries with boots on the ground, they are far and few in between.

@@SailingCatamaranElement as per your words “their social sciences jobs pay less.” I’m not antagonizing at all, but I think the question to ask ourselves is why they are paid less for those jobs. If you think carefully about it, all jobs are important to society whether they seem fancy or not. Let’s say the farm age collector didn’t come for a few weeks, well the city would become awefully smelly and rodent infested quickly and people and pets could get sick. So, important job? I drive executives doctors and lawyers around in the big city in terrible traffic and stress. If someone’s getting surgery, it’s b/c I drive their doctor there. People all deserve better than basic living wage. In Canada, even worse than US according to stats, women earn less than men and. Their jobs are valuable, so it should not be the case. My two cents.
I would love to go back to school to study software development or data science. However, right now I am busy with work and taking care of elderly person while saving up to buy a condo.
@@MakeThatChange I was thinking something like take the average canadian salary and the average canadian taxes and try to check how much time would be necessary to have an average house, an average car etc etc, that would be interesting
I have a bachelor's degree from Carleton University. My cousins in Boston and Miami have degrees from UMass Boston and Miami Dade College. Both make more money than I do in Ottawa. Canada doesn't pay. Taxes are too high. Time to move. 💪
You have to change jobs regularly. The biggest career killer is staying at one job for more than 3 years. The employer you stay at values you way less than next employer who will pay market rates
I decided to leave Canada at age 26… great country in many ways, but definitely not the place to work as an employee… Why did I leave? Too many people talking about “the average Canadian”, taxes way too high, cost of living too high relative to disposable income. I love to go back once/twice per year to visit relatives and enjoy the country for a few weeks… but then happy to leave…
Between inflation and the crazy housing/rental prices, we are doing worse than before!!! We are also doing worse than other countries e.g. Germany. Great indeed!

Thank you for breaking down how Canadian earn their salaries and wages I was confused at first. And I just heard there is a wildfire going on in North America especially Canada and I hope you are not affected by it.
I am learning about Digital Marketing these days through an online program and hope to do digital marketing for other people or businesses, and at the same time I would like to do eCommerce by selling some household products in demand. I have the desire but not sure if it will work out for me once I move to Canada and that is to become a part-time Physio-Therapist. Please comment, if I have chosen the right track for my further career. I already hold an MBA degree from Pakistan and I am 54 at the moment. Thank you!
At 54, do not come. You're unlikely to find anything that will enable you to live a better life. If you have children and are looking for a better life for them, then it's a maybe. But you personally will struggle.
Angela, my parents came to Canada at around that age. For them, it made sense, because they wanted to optimize for retirement - retiring in Russia was a very grim prospect. Today, they're doing ok, not great, not bad, but they have a comfortable and stable life, one that they wouldn't have today if they stayed in Russia. In the end of the day, it all depends on your goals, and the reason WHY you want to leave your own country.
@@MakeThatChange It makes sense. I am currently researching about products that Pakistan is good at and it can sell well in North America. I hope that importing from Pakistan and exporting from Canada the things that they have competitive advantage can also be helpful for a decent living.
@Make That Change Put it into context. Your chart does not show the field involved, it doesn't show the education of people involved in the study. As an example, should a surgeon be paid the same as a nurse? I don't think so. Comparing the pay gap solely based on gender is wrong. I am strongly in favor of equality of opportunity because everyone should be given a chance regardless of their gender. However, equality of outcome is simply impossible.
There are so many numbers that effect the household income. Does my husband possibly make slightly more here in the states, yes. Then you have to consider that 1000s of student loans he is paying plus the over $4k of medical debt from having my daughter (after paying $500 out of pocket) along with another $2k+ of other medical debt. Knowing y’all’s information does help with trying to balance out the difference in moving so thank you for this information.
Minimum wage was originally set up as a wage that would support two adults and two children on the wage of one working adult within that 4 unit family. Housing expense ( rent or mortgage) was calculated @ 25% of take home pay. Of course it was @ a time before Boomer greed swept the country. The ethics of a nation will always determine the prosperity of the majority. Nations that leave the power in the hands of an economic elite will always see exploitation of the economically suppressed majority.. The 21st Century is seeing a repeat of 19th Century robber baron rule. Only the technology is different. How long does one think a First World nation can prosper buying/ selling fast food and entertainment to each other?
I enjoyed watching, but we do need to hone in on the gender gap and shed light on its flaws. Despite what lobbyists and government reports want you to believe, much of the gap comes from the fact that on average, more women than men are stay-at-home parents and may just work part-time jobs or have gigs on the side of parenting, which is factored into this stat. I know that some organizations go a step further and put out deceptive reports that include people who choose to be stay-at-home parents 100% of the time and make no income, which is just so misleading. The reality is also that traditionally women have preferred to go into professions that just aren't as lucrative. Sure, it is changing (which is perfectly fine), but I don't think the workforce was designed intentionally by the evil men of the universe to exclude women from higher paying roles. No need to encourage your viewers to be "furious" about the stats. We just need to accept that there are differences between men and women and that's okay. Average income isn't the end all to be all and is not the only factor that determines whether someone is successful or happy.
Its funny that the USA is the highest and very misleading. As well all should know there are 3 people, in the USA, who make more money than the lower HALF of the country. If you take away the top 1%, the median income will drop by over $16,000.00!
I don’t get it. Median salary is exactly the middle number. If you take away the top 1%, obviously the middle number shifts to the lower end. The same thing will happens to all country. The fact that the US has way more high paying jobs than Canada is undeniable. Without fx exchange, my annual comp went up 150k by moving from Toronto to NYC doing accounting and the diff only keeps going up afterwards.
Yes,but the top 1% of other countries is not even close to the same wage disparity that is in the US. Additionally, accounting is not an average job and has the potential for high pay, depending on the company. However there are a lot of jobs that pay very poor wages in the US, otherwise known as corporate welfare. Where these people cannot earn a living wage. Overall, excluding the top 1% paints a more realistic picture for all countries.
informative video. Good to know. You said women on average earn less than men is because women work less in the same roles as compared to men. Eg I was working on weekends and there was an emergency due to an outage. I emailed all managers n then I messaged n called them. Only male managers replied and assisted while women managers ignored it. Salary depend on your skills n work output n not on gender. Some women who work better earn more than their male counterparts
Thanks for sharing this Sufyan. The thing is not all jobs are paid by the hour or pay overtime, so it’s not just about your output, but also perceived impact and frankly, ability to advocate for yourself and negotiate a higher salary.
Men and woman get paid the same. Providing they work the same hours, have the same education and similar roles. These stats are manipulated to target woman that made poor career choices.
Is your statement based on facts or staiscitcs or personal opinion or experience? Please feel free to share links to research results that state the same, we would like to learn more
@Make That Change All factual. I don't work for free. It's up to you to provide the facts, not partially manipulated data. In your next video, it would be fair to show a large study that goes beyond stateing gender and salary. That's gaslighting. That study, stat, etc. should only show men and women that work the standard 40 hours/week. Have similar responsibilities and education. Even still, there are problems with the stats. For ex. If statistics only listed full-time salary employees, it would still be inaccurate because many women go beyond what maternity leave offers. Therefore, it is still being listed as full-time but not working a full year.
It sounds what you’re getting at, is it’s nearly impossible to get truly factual data on this. It doesn’t exist, unless you’re running a fully funded research project in this, which we highly doubt.
@@MakeThatChange no, no. It's for brain fuge. Enterprises are doing everything for attracting more skilled people because Germans are escaping from the country by taxes. Doesn't sound familiar?
Hey dear, please tell me in Canada Do software engineers really get paid 400k or 200k dollar per annum? A person with CS degree or diploma and 1 year experience. Does he really get that salary? Or company fires him/her in couple of months and recruit new employer? Many persons are saying that they are getting paid this amount.
@@MakeThatChange well being honest is a lot better than my previous country (Cuba a communist dictatorship) but is a litle... boring here, not much to do, but yeah i am happy
Rehaan, some engineers do make this amount - they are likely to make 200k, than 400k. 400k is more of a Silicon valley grade salary. Most entry level CS jobs don't offer that salary, and it takes 3-5 years for many engineers to get to the 200k level. A good starting salary should be around 80-100k
women don't do as much work as men in most of jobs, I wasn't surprised by the gap difference, in fact, I think it should be bigger, and that's not based on sex thing, the fact that most women are not as sharp and dedicated as men, they fall behind a little bit ( again not in every job )
Men make more because Women choose less paying job. Women are more agreeable and dont ask for raises. It's been debunked. Please do not spread the divide. Also, Women on average work for themselves. Men work for their families. Statistically, we we NEED to make more, to exist and be chosen by lovely Women who complain about not getting paid the same as Men.
It's OK to come to work and explore Canada when you're 18 - 30 years old. Then you have to choose - If you don't want a family - STAY, and if you do want a family - LEAVE AND NEVER LOOK BACK BEFORE YOU TURN 40!

There is no Bell curve related to the median. The Bell curve is a distribution, it has nothing to do with the median which is just a value.

Weather matters
Men and woman get paid the same. Providing they work the same hours, have the same education and similar roles. These stats are manipulated to target woman that made poor career choices.
Is your statement based on facts or staiscitcs or personal opinion or experience? Please feel free to share links to research results that state the same, we would like to learn more
@Make That Change All factual. I don't work for free. It's up to you to provide the facts, not partially manipulated data. In your next video, it would be fair to show a large study that goes beyond stateing gender and salary. That's gaslighting. That study, stat, etc. should only show men and women that work the standard 40 hours/week. Have similar responsibilities and education. Even still, there are problems with the stats. For ex. If statistics only listed full-time salary employees, it would still be inaccurate because many women go beyond what maternity leave offers. Therefore, it is still being listed as full-time but not working a full year.
It sounds what you’re getting at, is it’s nearly impossible to get truly factual data on this. It doesn’t exist, unless you’re running a fully funded research project in this, which we highly doubt.
Did you know that Germany is running out of people too, right?
The overall human race reproduction is declining
@@MakeThatChange no, no. It's for brain fuge. Enterprises are doing everything for attracting more skilled people because Germans are escaping from the country by taxes. Doesn't sound familiar?
software engineer here, this is absolutely true, i lived in sherbooke in a fully remote job
how did you like it? were you happy?
Hey dear, please tell me in Canada
Do software engineers really get paid 400k or 200k dollar per annum?
A person with CS degree or diploma and 1 year experience. Does he really get that salary? Or company fires him/her in couple of months and recruit new employer?
Many persons are saying that they are getting paid this amount.
@@MakeThatChange well being honest is a lot better than my previous country (Cuba a communist dictatorship) but is a litle... boring here, not much to do, but yeah i am happy
@@Azif45628 thats not true, is highly paid but not 400K or 300K
Rehaan, some engineers do make this amount - they are likely to make 200k, than 400k. 400k is more of a Silicon valley grade salary.
Most entry level CS jobs don't offer that salary, and it takes 3-5 years for many engineers to get to the 200k level. A good starting salary should be around 80-100k
Thanks for this video. Very informative as usual

Very nice video and very nicely explained. Love and regards from Pakistan.

Damn, Canadians are making bank
women don't do as much work as men in most of jobs, I wasn't surprised by the gap difference, in fact, I think it should be bigger, and that's not based on sex thing, the fact that most women are not as sharp and dedicated as men, they fall behind a little bit ( again not in every job )
❤😮

Men make more because Women choose less paying job. Women are more agreeable and dont ask for raises.
It's been debunked.
Please do not spread the divide.
Also, Women on average work for themselves. Men work for their families. Statistically, we we NEED to make more, to exist and be chosen by lovely Women who complain about not getting paid the same as Men.
