The financial report document posted on the city website shows that $50,720,521 is paid to city staff. This includes a pension fund payment (paid by taxpayers) of $3,468,581 and total benefit expenses of $704,533.
These wages and salaries include union and non-union city staff and firefighters, but does not include the cost of the RCMP.

It was not clear if these numbers also include pension contributions made by the taxpayer and the benefits also paid by the taxpayers of Nanaimo.
Salaries in public office seem high to me compared to private companies.
