About this data
Job Bank reports wages by economic region, not by city boundary. Ottawa doesn't have its own published figure, so these numbers cover Ottawa Region, the standard region Ottawa falls under in Statistics Canada's own geography, the same mapping used across Job Bank and provincial labour ministries. All figures are in Canadian dollars, not directly comparable to the USD figures on this site's US state-by-state salary pages without a currency conversion.
Practicing the actual sales conversation matters more than which side of the border you're on. Daily practice on objection handling and closing is what moves you toward the high end of this range, wherever you're selling.
