Stock options are critical to the tech industry as startups need to attract top talent  and giving stock options is they do it. Taking away stock options would destroy the tech industry in Canada

I assume you are talking about the top 100 CEOs who average about $9 million in salary and stock options.  Problem is that the medium (50% mark) is about $6.5 million substancally less than the "average". Also I noticed that at least 3 of the top ten are Americans residing in the US  who pay US taxes. Also if you take the top  anything you will get a distorted picture of the actual amounts paid to CEOs.

The leftist propaganda continually distorts the Canadian "wealthy". Firstly the wealthy are the to 0.1% not the 1%, at least in Canada.

The average of the 1% in Canada makes about $466,700 before tax. 
The average of the 1% in US makes about $1,260,000 USD before tax. 
And they pay lower taxes.

Who has the problem?
