Who’s Making the Most This Week

Mining, oil, and gas topped the pay scale in March 2026 with workers earning nearly $2,500 weekly — a solid gain from last year. Utilities and media also cracked the $2,000 mark, while food service lagged behind at just over $538. Some sectors like real estate and forestry saw wage declines, highlighting the job market’s volatility. Payroll employment dipped slightly across most industries between February and March, but job openings stayed steady at over 500,000. Nunavut led nationally with average weekly pay near $1,875, while Prince Edward Island trailed with the lowest earnings — though both saw year-over-year growth.
