Canadians, what percentage of your earnings goes to taxes?



Canadians, what percentage of your earnings goes to taxes?

the previous answer is only partially correct. the % of earnings charged for tax is based on your income all provinces are rated the same as far as Federal Tax but each province will vary in % of provincial tax .
for instance Alberta rates are 0%, 15.25%, 25.15%, 32.0%, 36%, and 39% depending on your income.
there is a site that breaks the %rates down by income amounts for each province.

these rates are based on your income after allowable deductions ( government issued)
and Ontario tax rates start at 0% also and have 16.%, 21.3%, 24.4%, 31.15%, 32.98%, 35.39%, 39.41%, 43.41% and 46.41%
alberta charges 39% tax on income at or above $118,000. where Ontario charges 46.41% on income $118,000. and above.
Varies from province to province and depends on your income level. In Ontario which is the largest province, the rates range from 21.55% on income below $35,488, to a maximum rate of 40.16% on income in excess of $120,888, with various intermediate rates in between. Also, the first $8,553 is tax free due to the basic personal exemption.

The province of Alberta has the lowest level of personal income taxes, with a rate of 25.5% on income below $37,178 and a maximum rate of 39% on income above $120,888.

The above rates are based on combining the applicable provincial and federal rates.
