If you want high quality, qualified applicants you have to pay them like they are high quality, qualified applicants or they will go elsewhere.
Not if the TTC also gets tons of applications. Sometimes people have to settle for the lower pay (or higher price, for something they are buying) which is actually available, in preference to the higher pay (or lower price) which can’t actually be had.
I do agree with your last sentence however. The salaries should not be pared to the absolute minimum; if that were done then there would be high turnover and they couldn’t be selective when hiring.
