In reference to Ron Giesbrecht's salary
Quote:
One week after he was revealed to be the highest-paid elected official in Canada, Kwikwetlem First Nation Chief Ron Giesbrecht claimed in his first official statement that he is actually “one of the lowest paid Chiefs in the country.”
While it is true Mr. Giesbrecht earned only $4,800 in his role as chief of the 82-member Metro Vancouver nation, he was paid an $800,000 bonus in 2013-14 because he was also serving as the band’s economic development officer, a job that gave him $80,000 a year and a 10% cut of all new “capital projects and business opportunities.”

If he earned it, I'm not opposed to it.
