Unix administrator salary

Hi

I am a mechanical engineer, living and working in Canada.
I have been offered a position for HP Ux System Administrator, Engineering Support(installing, configuring, installing patches, offering support etc, for about 7 applications like Pro Engineer, Mentor etc in a medium size company), in the company I work for.
I know also C, C++ and unix script programming.
I would appreciate if someone tell me what is the average salary for such a position in Canada so I could make an ideea about how much to ask during the negociation.

Thanks

Thank you
Sure, no problem, It was just the type of things I have learned after several years of consulting. remember....most clients alsways expect the world, it might be a good idea to get any promises in writing too, depending on how well you know the company
