These tax comparison tables show the total income taxes payable or refundable at various levels of employment income for a single person, for each province and territory. A second table for each year shows the average tax rate (total taxes divided by total employment income). For 2010 to present, a tax comparison is also provided for a single-income family with 2 children.
