CFA® + MBA Combined Salary?

Hi does anyone know how much of a salary boost you can get if you have both your CFA® and MBA in Canada?

Background info: I'm a recent graduate and work in Big 4 Consulting (in a finance-specific group) making $70k a year. Writing CFA® L2 in 2021 and have a BComm in Finance so completing an accelerated MBA in the next couple years will be wayyy cheaper and faster for me than doing a regular MBA. I'd really like to do both, I'm the first woman in my family to go to university and grew up in poverty so it's just something I've always wanted to accomplish given where I was before (aka not doing it solely for the money). That being said having a general idea of salary expectations would be good to know for planning any career moves in the future. Couldn't really find anything on WSO or on Google. Thanks!!
