Default Re: salary negotiation

[ QUOTE ]
A bit out of topic, but I find absolutly amazing how much software engineers in the US make! Damn, I just make 39K here in Canada. Ok I'm a junior just out of university, but I graduated first of my class, got a lot of offers, negociated a lot and accepted the best offer at 39K. But making a six-figures salary here as a software developper will never happen. A senior can expect to make about 80 K, and only if he's great and essential.

Makes me want to move south.

Yeah but you get to live in Canada. Sort of like how Santa Barbara pays so cheap. Wait...

But seriously, how do they keep any software developers? Does Canada have no startups? Can anyone confirm Canada pays this bad?
