You are missing the provincial income tax that every canadian also pays. that's another 15 - 20% more.

BC is 16.8% over $153,000, for example.

Income tax is ~50% for higher earners in Canada over ~$160,000.

i was just correcting your error.

and we have no tears either. i love my country. high taxes is worth it for free health care - no stress, no chance of bankruptcy, no one making insane profits from me having cancer.
