Not one of those positions you just listed require a bachelor's degree plus grad-school. Not one. Don't you think that kind of cherry-picking is a little dishonest? 95K is for the highest level of qualifications (IE they've taken additional qualifications courses to maket them eligible for leadership roles within the organization) at the highest level of the salary grid.

Then you're comparing this absolute maximum vs. average salaries for other professions.

Compare apples to apples.

Nurses are the closest to compare - nursing at least requires an undergrad.... http://www.fin.gov.on.ca/en/publications... ctrl-F "Registered Nurse" and holyfreakingsurprise, there are nurses on the sunshine list! The top-end and entry-level for nurses compares to teachers. It's almost as if two career paths that are both academic professionals working for the public have similar salaries. This is apalling!

And like I said in another thread, teachers were ready to take a hit on salary anyways. They knew it was coming and were prepared for that. The present job action is about the fact that there was no negotiation - the provincial government went on the attack in the press and then legislated them to work without going through either negotiation or the arbitration that would be appropriate for an essential service.
