Market snapshot
The published city marketplace median reviewed on was $22 CAD per hour. It describes requested rates displayed on a city marketplace page; it is not a wage quote, availability promise or sample restricted to full-time candidates. The source does not publish a confirmed median sample size, so none is stated here.
Home-helper pay and combined-role pay need separate assessment based on actual duties.

Describe the borough or general area, working language, schedule and travel expectations. Quebec payroll and labour-standard questions require Quebec-specific review; obtain qualified advice for the actual direct-hire arrangement.

You can describe a genuine language requirement, but candidate availability is not guaranteed.
No eligible current local hourly example was approved, so the calculator requires the visitor's own quote.
