    I'm not a tax expert but a couple other details that are a little more advanced is not all income is taxed equally. If you are wondering what all the fuss is about in the new budget that is increasing the capital gains taxable amounts it is because currently you only pay tax on 50% of the gain. As an example, if you invest $1000 and then later sell for $3000, you would only pay tax on $1000. $3000 less $1000 invested equals $2000 gain but you only have to pay tax on half the gain so only on $1000. The other income source is Canadian approved (Canadian companies) dividends. In Ontario if your only source of income is from Canadian dividends you can make $50,000 and only pay $600 in total taxes, the amount varies by province. Investing in Canadian companies such as the big 5 banks that pay dividends gives you tax preferred income. Now, if you have the money in an RRSP, LIRA, or Pension fund, when you take this money out it is treated like income from a job and is taxed at the same rate as working income. There is a saying that is very true - "instead of working hard for your money, let your money work hard for you."

    Very informative, It sounds like the BPA must be taxed at base rate rather than deducting it from total amount, Potentially putting your last 15 k in a higher bracket, Thank you for clearing up some Questions I had cheers from BC

    You didn't include all the other taxes we have to pay like sales tax, property tax and so on. If you earn 100K a year and spend all the money, I believe you have to pay 40-50K (40-50%) of your total income in tax.

    Thank you for this! So much useful knowledge!😊😊
    I wish a form of Income Sharing still existed in Canada so that the higher earning family member could lower their tax rate.
    It feels as though Canadians are punished progressively the harder they work/earn.

    The higher the tax rate, more inefficient the government.

    That federal n provincial tax. N each state has its own rates show the Canadian gov. Is not serious in making life easier. I thought australia has higher income tax than Canada. But at the end I think au n Canada has very similar rates.

    It should honestly be 5% for the first 50k you make, 15% is way too extreme.
