I said 1.3m in the metro area, which includes the population of Calgary. A high average salary doesn't necessarily make the whole of Calgary a high income area either. The average hourly rate of low population places can be easily influenced by outliers, like in the case of Nunavut and several cities in Alberta, contractors doing seasonal work in dangerous trades.
