Canada Pension Funds - Comp Trajectory

Curious about what the compensation trajectory is like at top Canadian pensions (CPP/OTPP).

I'm aware that analyst comp is going to be somewhere between 140-160k, but I'm more curious about how much associates and principals make. Any direct data points anyone has, or any sort of ranges people can speak to? Specifically asking about the Toronto office.
