What is the starting salary for a nurse in Canada and/or the united states

What is the starting salary for a nurse in Canada and/or the united states?
I'm just curious how much a nurse gets paid when they start working. Does it matter what kind of nurse a person is? Thanks!

There are all kinds of nurses, including two-year AD nurses, three-year diploma nurses, four-year baccalaureate nurses, nurses with graduate degrees, special certifications, mid-wives, anesthecists and nurse practitioners. So there's that. You then have to consider where the nurse is working: a community health clinic, a major hospital in a metro area, a doctor's office or has she hung out her own shingle? The field of study, expertise and geographic location all impact salary as well. Canada has a system of socialized medicine, so medical personnel are paid less than they are in the U.S. Check out this link to at least get a rough idea of some of salaries: http://www.studentdoc.com/nursing-jobs-salaries.html
