After waiting for a long time, the results are finally here! The 2007/2008 RGD Ontario/Aquent National Survey of Graphic Design Salaries & Billing Practices is now available for download. This survey was conducted by RGD Ontario and its partner AQUENT, in cooperation with the Society of Graphic Designers of Canada (GDC) and the Société des designers graphiques du Québec (SDGQ).
This is the fourth time a survey of this nature has been conducted in Canada by this Association and even though the results are not to be viewed as a nationally representative statistical sample of all graphic design professionals, it does provide a current reflection of what some in the design profession are currently earning.

On September 10th, the RGD Ontario broadcast a memo to their members announcing the resignation of RGD founder Albert Ng – a man widely regarded as the godfather of Design accreditation in North America – from their board of directors. More importantly though, along with his seat on the board, Albert relinquished his status as an R.G.D. member altogether. One day later, vice-president Jack Mlynek also resigned.
On September 21st, retired RGD member Ivy Li published a letter regarding the resignations.
You can read the official RGD Ontario response to her letter, signed by current President Nicole Vallée and endorsed by 5 Past Presidents, here.
