A plain multiplication (hourly wage × hours per week × weeks per year) using your assumptions. It is not a published annual wage and ignores overtime, unpaid time off, benefits and taxes.
By province and territory
“Larger-area figure only” means Job Bank shows that area with a provincial, Atlantic or national figure; it is not a local wage and is not shown here. Differences are calculated only between figures in the same unit.
