It depends on much better pay and how bad the work experience and for how long. In the long term I say better work experience because money doesn't buy happiness. In the short term I might tolerate crap work experience for the cash.

By work "better work experience" do you mean its more pleasant to work there or do you mean that you will actually learn skills that could be useful? If it is just about being more pleasant I feel that proverbs 15:17 applies:
"Better a meal of vegetables where there is love than a fattened calf with hatred." Assuming of course that you hate the high wage job.

i think it depends on what kind of job we're talking about here, similar to what Alvis said. Is this a summer job, or a job for a couple of years? Or even, a lifer-job? I think that since you're in school and are going for a degree, i think it's just better to go for max-payout... in the end, if the job you want requires a degree in something, the work experience won't really matter too much.

The experience job is downtown in an office working in a Chartered Accountant office.

And the high paying job is manufacturing refrigeration units on Regent.

But it might be a null issue, I could get one or the other without choosing, or I might get neither.

+i would hands down take the money. manufacturing refrigeration units sounds random and possibly exciting. think about how much fun you had with boxes back at premier. i think...? lol you had fun with boxes right? or you liked to make stuff out of tape or something. plus it's only a summer job and i think you'll appreciate the money more than the "experience" you get from the other place!

I did have fun with the boxes, met lots of great people. We did like to make stuff out of the tape and cardboard as well, a on the job perk I guess.
