Sunshine List of $100,000 earners in public sector tops 400,000 for first time

[shockedcanadian]

Ontario is going bankrupt and America will no longer be supporting our corrupt province or nation. Over 400,000 citizens in Ontario are paid over $100k by government. Just a racket for the Creepy Ones and their low performing families.

Thus, when it collapses, you will be able to purchase our countries assets pennies on the dollar. Police States are expensive. Some of us are going to have malicious prosecution in the future I presume since the criminals in our country will not stop...

Sunshine List of $100,000 earners in public sector tops 400,000 for first time

More than 400,000 Ontario public sector workers earn $100,000 or more, a new record, as inflation continues to erode a 30-year-old threshold.

The number of public sector workers in Ontario earning $100,000 or more has set a record, topping 400,000 as inflation continues to erode a threshold set 30 years ago.
Now including 404,923 people, the "Sunshine List" has grown 7.2 per cent from last year, and is almost 100 times longer than the 4,501 higher-level staff whose wages were chronicled when it was first issued in 1996.

Premier Doug Ford’s government released the annual list Friday, detailing 2025 salaries that range from a highly paid hydro executives to hospital CEOs earning hundreds of thousands of dollars to bureaucrats, police officers, nurses and teachers just above the threshold.
“Over 50 per cent of this year’s growth was driven by municipalities, which includes local police and fire services whose work continues to protect Ontario communities,” Treasury Board president Caroline Mulroney said in a statement.

For years, economists have questioned the relevance of the list, even though $100,000 remains above the median income in the province.
Successive governments have been urged to index the $100,000 to inflation to make it more meaningful, but none have taken up the challenge, arguing it remains a benchmark.
The president of the union representing civil service professionals said Friday that the list’s original intent — providing transparency for the pay of the most senior executives, not the “rank and file” — has been lost.

There is “very little relevance without indexation,” Dave Bulmer of AMAPCEO told the Star.
According to the Bank of Canada inflation calculator, $100,000 in 1996 would have been worth $185,017 last year. Meanwhile, $100,000 in 1996 was the equivalent of $54,049 in 2025.
Growth in the Sunshine List has hit a blistering pace — in 2023 it surpassed 300,000 for the first time. It is now quadruple the number of a decade ago, when it was in the 100,000 range.
Bulmer said AMAPCEO has asked the government to index the list to inflation and anonymize it by removing names because some of its members have been stalked.

I'm curious, do Canadian government employees receive a pension as US government employees do when they retire?

400,000? Good lord, how many people work in government there?

I'm curious, do Canadian government employees receive a pension as US government employees do when they retire?

Yes. A very generous one, plus often a lifetime benefits with health care, financial discounts etc.

Here is the racket police chiefs in Canada play. A chief will become, say a chief of Toronto police. They will then move to another police outfit in Ontario, say, the London police after a controversy of spying on the Police Board for example.

No problem good sir. We will just move you to another jurisdiction so you can engage in a project that was accused of targeting gay men.

After they do 30-35 years and qualify for a massive provincial pension, they can go into federal politics. Win a riding or perhaps get into an administration and after only four years they stack their second, new shiny massive pension, this time from the feds. Most Canadians do not even have one pension while they are juggling multiple generous ones.

This is primarily a massive grift in Toronto and large cities in Ontario but the RCMP do it too.

The reason for our collapse is simple: unaccountable police state from the RCMP on down.

They intend to continue to target me and I intend to advise our American and European friends when they do.
