Check job posting for FA as well as accountant, most of them request CA/CMA/CGA. The skill set and experience are more important than a title only.

CGA is designed to be a bookkeeper rather than an analyst and the skill set developed from CGA program is less competitive to be a financial analyst in large/globla companies, which prefer to hire CMA, MBA or CA in general.

The average salary of CMAs may be higher because many CMAs are also MBAs. This does not mean that CMA is a better desgination. If you compare those CGA + MBA and CMA + MBA, you may find a different answer.

Do you agree the CEO, CFO of Nortel should be sent to Jail?I agree that average CMA earns more than CGA. why? i think a lot of them don't know accounting principal. they just made any adjustment to improve their profit line to get more bonus. So what they did is cheating the bank, CRA and investors. Think about you bought a lot of Nortel stocks based on their financial statements, but now your stock worth 0. What you will say? After you answer this question, and then please post your comments here.
