Canada’s 100 highest-paid CEOs make 210 times more than the average worker

According to a report by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (CCPA), Canada’s 100 highest-paid CEOs made an average of $13.2-million in 2023, 210 times more than the average worker. In 1998, that number was 104.

The study also found that, out of the list of the 100 highest-paid CEOs in Canada, only 3 are women.

“By the first working day of the year, January 2 at 10:54 a.m., these 100 CEOs already made, on average, $62,661. It took the average Canadian worker all year to earn that amount.”

New @ccpa report: Company Men: CEO Pay in Canada, 2023. On average, the top 100 CEOs were paid 210X more than the average worker’s wage in 2023, and this wealth gap is only growing: In 1998, they'd made 104 times more. The report busts key myths about CEOs’ pay & their worth. 1/2 pic.twitter.com/n1M2SzqWOU
