What Comp Range is expected for a “senior data scientist” in Toronto? T2 tech firm.

I think I have been low balled at 70 CAD an hour for a contractor position (so no bonus, no benefits, no growth trajectory)

Context: Was previously making 270 USD consulting, project 300 USD next year. Wasnt expecting to make that much because this is a pivot though i have a masters in data science, but 1/2 seems crazy without even factoring currency.

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.

Thoughts on what to do?

I am not embracing the notion that you shouldn't have to code to do data science. However, I think coding may soon be much less of a competitive advantage.
