Method. Percentiles are computed on salary paid (not salary plus taxable benefits) for every record on the 2025 Ontario Sunshine List, in $1,000 bands. The list only includes public-sector employees paid $100,000 or more, so a rank here is a rank among the top of the public sector — not among all Ontario workers, and not among private-sector pay. “Paid more” counts people paid at least $1,000 above $127,000. Counts under five are shown as “<5”, and whenever one figure is that small the others are rounded down (“404,910+”) so it cannot be recovered by subtraction. Nobody is named on this page.
