I have recently seen RPN salaries ranging from $17.00 to $23 + in my area( about 1 hour north of Toronto). I just got my first job and I am starting at $22 + 18% in leiu of benefits once I get my permanent licence, ($19.80 + 18% with my temp licence.)

Right now in Ontario, the govt is offering 2007 grads 7 months of full time employment in hospitals that hire RPN's and nursing homes. The pay can range from $18/hr to $23./hour. After the 7 months, I am not sure if you still get full time status, you may have to go part time until a full time line comes up. The pay really depends on what the demand for RPN's is. Where I live, there is little demand for RPN's but if you head about an hour north, there are lots of jobs for RPN's.
