I don't know if we're "paid more than enough." We are definitely paid decently, according to our standard of living in Canada (most places.) However, as an example, I (4th year Capt, not factoring aircrew pay) make as much as a RAAF 1st year Cpl Int Op, and my equivalent (FLT LT Air Combat Officer) would be earning close to $100,000 before aircrew and other allowances come in. Plus, on deployment, my monthly hardship and risk allowance was equal to a week's allowance for them.
All that being said, the CAF have some benefits that few (or no) other militaries provide. The whole house-hunting trip process comes to mind; we actually get to check the area out instead of being given 2 weeks at the start of a posting to hopefully find something decent.
It may sound like a bit of a rant and "grass is greener"-esque, but I'm just providing some possibly relevant context. Anyways, no one joins the military for the pay :
