Here is an unverified WestJet Encore payscale:
WESTJET ENCORE PILOT HOURLY RATE OF PAY

FIRST OFFICER
Step 1 Start Rate $38.00
Step 2 Completed one (1) year $38.76
Step 3 Completed two (2) years $39.54
Step 4 Completed three (3) Years $40.33

CAPTAIN
Step 1 Start Rate $68.00
Step 2 Completed one (1) year $69.36
Step 3 Completed two (2) years $70.75
Step 4 Completed three (3) Years $72.16

To get 1000 hours MULTI you will have worked about 4 years (minimum) getting driven into debt, or you have dropped $150K+ to build your hours. All to qualify to make $38/hr. I also wouldn't qualify Encore as a "national" airline, they are a regional, and they certainly pay like one.
