How Canadian Salary Tax Works
Canada uses a progressive federal tax system with additional provincial taxes that vary significantly by province. Your total income tax is the sum of federal tax + provincial tax + CPP contributions + EI premiums. The federal Basic Personal Amount ($15,705 in 2024) reduces your taxable income before these rates apply.
