Questions and answers

Why is Xiaodong Lin on the disclosure list?

University Of Toronto paid Xiaodong Lin $313,923 in 2025. Ontario’s public employers must disclose everyone they paid $100,000 or more in a calendar year, under the Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act, 1996.

What does “salary paid” include?

What do the comparisons mean?
