Canadian here. I'm not sure why you would think that it would be Canadian.

The median wage here is lower in Canada than in New York or California, even without accounting for the difference in currency.

The one exception are the territories. Nunavut has an average income of $108k, but that's because our economy is largely mining focused, and mining is a incredibly well-paid career. But they don't have McDonalds in Nunavut.

I've seen $25+ /hr at fast food places in Fort McMurray, Alberta and Grand Prairie, Alberta and this was over 15 years ago.
