How Progressive Tax Works in Canada

In Canada, like many countries, the tax system is progressive. This means you don't pay the highest rate on all your income. Instead, you pay different rates on different portions of your income. For example:

  • 1You only pay 15% on the first CA$55,867
  • 2Then 20.5% on the next portion, and so on
  • 3The highest rate of 33% only applies to income above CA$246,752
