Are the other employees overpaid or not? I have no idea. However it should be easy to benchmark. A city bus driver should not make substantially more or less than say a Greyhound bus driver.

That's an article by Jordan Bateman, use your discretion when reading articles to assess the BS metre, the spin factor, or the intentional ignoring of facts. That is the equivalent of reading an article by Stephen Harper telling you why you should vote Conservative. Secondly, Toronto has multiple transit CEOs and when you combine their pay it is way more than Translink's one CEO.

Last, my post was directly in response to one that made a statement about private sector pay. I was pointing out that the CEOs are not paid at private sector levels, but below.
