In my home province, average social worker pay is comparable to average engineer pay.

I bet your home province doesn’t have many engineers

Roughly 20% less than average for the country (Canada). (Keeping in mind software developers generally can't call themselves "engineers" in Canada.)

Opposite problem, too many relative to jobs.

That’s either great or terrible, but I can’t tell which. Are they paid well?

Yes, pretty well. Individual median salaries about on par with median household income.

Where I live, average social worker pay puts them only one rung above the people they are supposed to care for.
