The pay is pretty good by Canadian standards over $110,000 (cdn). Contrary to what trolls say the average tax rate is 30% at that level.
You can see why this attracts a very different caliber of person than a regional Fed in the US, which pays twice as much with (except in the few most expensive cities) a similar or lower cost of living...
80% research time? No.
You should know “Research” includes analytical works about the Canadian economy directed by your boss. If you are applied econometrician, you can’t expect much time on your own research at all.
The research environment is poor for juniors in the sense that you can’t expect advice from good senior researchers, because those who can publish at a good journal leave.
Policy work means, for example, writing some report or reviewing something. Research work doesn’t mean your own research. You need to often do analytical works that are never publishable. I would say the research time for your own research is 15%. It will be much smaller as you become senior.

Is that really true about the US regional fed?

The number inflates here. In any occasion, you can’t devote 80-90% of time to research. It’s just 30-40% in the reality.
Remember: everything is based on your request and approval. It’s an institution. You need to coordinate with colleagues. You can’t expect you can get whatever you request.
Overall, you shouldn’t expect the BoC. It is a poor environment. They try to make it better over decades, but it keeps failed.
80% research at least in the first couple of years. if you are productive and publish in top-fields expect the same balance after. currently at BoC, recently promoted
Not generally true. Depends on your director and department. Some peole get 80% some get much less.
Not true at all.......

research time = F(school rank) + G(JMP publication potential), with F'>0, G'>0

The place is a zoo. It's bad for everyone who believes in merit-based allocation of rewards and opportunities, but especially for women. If you are a female student/PhD, avoid the place unless you want to have your self-confidence and career destroyed- or at least attempted to be destroyed.

How do they destroy your confidence?

imagine that, a whiny woman convinced it’s her gender rather than her mediocrity that’s holding her back
