Do CEO's of Crown Corporations earn more than Premier or Prime Minister?

Annual CEO Salary of BC Crown Corporations

A friend sent me this information. I was surprised to learn how much the CEO’s earn. But that’s not all. The figures are based on year 2006, so I assume the current salary will be much much more. Poor BC residents….have to pay big bucks to those public service employees. Do they really deserve that much?

If BC Lotto CEO can earn that much, he probably doesn’t need to play lottery at all.
