Most especially. There was a a short period through the height of COVID where there was some struggle, but wages have done very well in the last five years, before and after COVID.

The last five or so years has quite possibly been the strongest job market Canada has ever seen. Of course wages are going to do well.

Ah I guess it's just me getting hosed then. That's good information to have that everyone else's wages were keeping up with the rampant inflation

Way to go, idiot. Just make more money and you'll be fine.
