Canada’s highest (and lowest) paying jobs of 2014

Peter Harris| Nov 25, 2014 04:15 pm
"As 2014 draws to a close, and many people start formulating their New Year’s resolutions and goals for 2015, we thought that it was a good time to take a look back at some of the country’s most (and least) lucrative jobs to have.

To start in the middle, according to Statistics Canada, the average wage for Canadian employees is currently $928 per week – or just about $48,250 a year – based on a 40-hour workweek. Most of the jobs on our high paying list earn at least three times that much in 2014. (And the lowest paying occupations paid less than half the average.)

The highest paying jobs in Canada:

Specialist physicians at the high end of the pay scale they can earn over $375,000
Dentist – $287,303
Family physicians – $272,750
Lawyers at the top end of the pay scale make $272,550
Judges $176,800
Senior Managers of Goods Production, Utilities, Transportation, and Construction – $165,000
Senior managers in Finance and Communications can earn $160,000
Actuaries earn $155,000
Engineering managers – $137,000
Top paid Airline Pilots make $138,000
Of course most of the country’s lowest paying jobs will simply pay the minimum wage of whatever region the job happens to be located in. Towards the low end of the scale that is roughly $9.95 an hour earning someone just over $20,000 – assuming they worked full time and were paid for 40 hours a week.

The lowest paying jobs in Canada:

Sewing machine operator – $19,760
Cashier – $20,700
Ironing, pressing and finishing occupations $20,700
Artisans $21,320
Bartender – $21,000
Harvesting labourer – $19,750
Service station attendant – $19,750
Food and beverage server – $22,000
Food counter attendant / kitchen help – $19,750
Babysitters, nannies, and parent’s helpers – $19,750
Of course this doesn’t take into account tipping. Bartenders and wait staff, particularly at higher end establishments can make very comfortable incomes with low hourly wages but the bulk of their income coming from tips. (See Confessions of the $100,000 waitress)

The Federal government’s Working in Canada website breaks down the salaries for different occupation by province and even by city. It’s a useful tool for seeing how your paycheque measures up – and preparing for your next salary negotiation."

I don't know about POF, but all docs I sent to AVO by courier, I quoted the uci and application number on the envelope as well as the cover letter. In my emails, I quoted both numbers also.
And I have received responses from them too!

You do not need to write anything on the statement as this will alter it, our wasn't even addressed to anyone just the print out from the bank on their letterhead. It was only in the body of the email that we quoted the UCI and application nos and the statement was attached and sent with the email. We got MR mail about 24hours later

Its better not to write on your statement of account documents.
Just attached a small cover letter to your package where you will make reference to the documents been sent.Give all your details in the cover letter and it will fine.
This is just to be on the safe side because even if you don't give your details on a cover letter,your full names alone on any documents been sent will pull out your information from their database.
As advised ,attach a cover letter where you will make reference to the documents requested from you afterwhich you will list out every detail of yours that link you with your application.
You may even get response back from Accra before they receive the package since i assume you must have sent it by email to them already .
One last advice,PLEASE DON'T USE FEDEX for now as they have crises currently and packages of people are been delayed unnecessarily .
Cheers.
