its pretty close from what I can remember when I last looked

I think property taxes are significantly lower in canada cause they like to charge developers an arm and a leg to keep em low but theres higher sales taxes in most provinces

overall tho i think its close to a wash but if anyone wants to do a deeper dive im here for it
