This would only account for $54,080.00 of the $158,080.00/year. So what do you get in benefits that are worth $104,000.00/year?
To put this in perspective, a General Practitioner (GP) Doctor in Ontario is making on average $125,000.00/year and works considerable more hours to earn it. The average Ontario household income is $80,000.00/year. Does something seem to be a little out of wack?

total health care for life is one thing, a big one in fact. And included in the $76/hr is the pension costs so the worker never sees that money. After that, I'm not sure what side benefits they get or how much they add up to.
