How the Halifax number is built.
Halifax figures come from ESDC's Open Government wages dataset, which publishes per-occupation pay at the Economic Region level. Halifax resolves via Statistics Canada Economic Region 1210, and each Orbyt role maps to its NOC 2021 occupation code. The figure is gross base salary in Canadian dollars; provincial and federal income tax is the consumer's calculation, not baked in.
Every estimate traces back to its government source through the methodology paper. The figure is served in native Canadian dollars.
