    It's $40k USD which means it's at least $50k CAD. It seems about right for recent graduates with less than 2 years experience. I'm in Montreal btw.

    Montreal is still expensive compared to the suburbs. Urban sprawl and congestion on bridges at rush hour is a big problem. Québec is the most taxed province in all of North America…

    If you contribute open source, your contribution will be out in the open. That's the whole point of it. If you remove it from Github, any website will be able to pull the same info…
