Canadian Real Median wages started to decline in the late 70's - the single tick up in 1980 is an anomaly - US wages show a similar pattern. It was one of PET's justifications for his record deficits.

Prior to NAFTA we only had the US Canada FTA ('87)  when real wages had already fallen significantly; since NAFTA was implemented, after the expected lag, real wages have been on an near permanent upwards trend, even as we have signed multiple Free Trade Agreements
