Workers in the public sector have their laundry aired every year thanks to the Ontario Sunshine List.
The list details the annual earnings of every public worker in the province. Residents using the tool can determine who in Ontario made the most, and even focus their search to Milton.

Reminder that these numbers are made public because these people work in the public workers. Anyone working for a private company would not find themselves on this list. Anyone on this list might also work for a private company, and therefore this might not reflect their full earnings last year.
You can check out the Sunshine List for yourself here. Be mindful of the years noted on the left column.
