I moved from the US to Canada, and got a new offer at a publicly-traded US company recently.

In the US, pay is around $215k total comp ($175k base, $40k RSUs). Because, I'm in the Toronto (which is more expensive than most of the US), they said my pay would get a circa $111k USD base ($145k CAD base).

Adjusted for inflation, I'm earning less than what I was making when I was 25 years old. Now, at age 32, I'm struggling to pay significant debts on this salary.

What am I to do?

Yes, you're getting paid less, but you've moved from a broken democracy to a functioning one. You also happen to be in one of the few nations on earth that will net benefit from climate change.

Actionable advice? Get a remote position and get the heck out of Toronto to a more LCOL Canadian location with decent internet
