In Canada, where do you find these non-FAANG 200k+ jobs?

Working for a US based startup (and there are still plenty of good Canadian ones as well)?
I've had Canadian coworkers at multiple companies where Senior Engineers made 200k+
While you absolutely take a huge pay cut to not work at a FAANG, it's not like making 200k+ is living in poverty.
Typically non-FAANG also has other perks: many more fully remote options, typically much more chill about working hours, working with niche tech stacks or on new problem spaces, etc.
You can enjoy work and still have a house and not have to worry about money at a non-FAANG, just not as aggressively much as you do at one.
