American engineer salaries are so insanely higher than anywhere else in the world that I'm pretty sure they've lost all perspective.

$200k USD would put you in the top 1% of earners here in Canada.

American engineers have to live in cities that are very expensive, so the $200K is not a fortune as some imagine.
