Here's How Much Money You Need To Make To Be Considered Rich In Each Of Canada's Major Cities

You'd think though that the range of annual income it takes to be considered the 1% would be pretty similar across the board in Canada, but surprisingly there are some big differences from city to city! Even more surprisingly, some places you would never think of actually top the list for the highest annual paycheck required to be considered a big wig!
