What are average manufacturing wages in Ontario?

Manufacturing wages in Ontario depend heavily on the role, skill level, and region. Skilled trades such as industrial mechanics, electricians, and CNC machinists earn well above general production roles, and pay for them has been rising with demand. For role-by-role figures, employer-reported survey data gives a far clearer picture than a single provincial average.
