Queen’s Park has published it’s annual Public Sector Salary Disclosure, better known as “The Sunshine List” for 2021. Last year saw 20 Town of Grimsby employees making over $100,000, up from 19 employees in 2020.

2021 Sunshine List employees at the Town earned a total of $2.54 million last year, including taxable benefits, compared to $2.37 million in 2020. Some of the 2021 earners include former Town employees who have previously been packaged out or were part of the senior Staff terminations that occurred this time last year.

The Town’s top earner and top bureaucrat, CAO Harry Schlange, pulled down $217,824.02 including benefits. He additionally received $306,188.21 in pay and benefits from Brampton in 2021, despite having “parted ways” way back in December 2018. If you aren’t keeping track that is $524,012.23 for 2021… not a bad haul!

While a dollar or $100,000 for that fact is not what it used to be even a year ago, those who “make the list” probably are not complaining.

All the details on the Town’s top earners and other public sector employees can be found in the full and searchable 2021 Provincial Sunshine List at the following link:
