Canada's richest 1% earned $454,800 average in 2013 and paid $151,900 in tax

[Anonymous]

Canada's richest one per cent of tax return filers saw their share of the country's total income remain the same in 2013 and their average total income grow by the same amount as everyone else's.



Statistics Canada reported Tuesday that the top one per cent of tax filers received 10.3 per cent of the nation's total income in 2013, the same amount as the previous year.



To be considered in the top one per cent of tax filers, a worker had to earn $222,000 in 2013. That group included 264,030 people across the country.



To be included in the top five per cent, the income cutoff was $115,700, while to be in the top 10 per cent required $89,200.



The average income for a member of Canada's one per cent was $454,800 — an increase of $5,600 compared to the previous year.



The average one percenter paid $151,900 in income taxes that year, an increase of $3,000.



The top one per cent of tax filers paid 20.3 per cent of federal and provincial/territorial income taxes in 2013, unchanged from the previous year.



Women made up 21.9 of Canada's top one per cent of tax filers in 2013, a percentage that has increased for 20 consecutive years.



Across the country:

■Ontario had the most members of the one per cent at 41.2 per cent of the total, or 108,830 people.

■Alberta was next at 23.6 per cent.

■Quebec had 15.5 per cent.

■British Columbia was at 11.3 per cent.

That's a good question. I think it is federal.

So much for the tired old leftist BS line about the successful not paying their "fair share". They are paying for everyone else.

The new Alberta government raised our income tax by 20% because they think we are rich

This is turning into a politics thread..



But, I agree that as Albertans are having wages cuts, hours cut or laid off, we in the public service are not being asked to share the pain..



That is not fair to Albertans.

Depending on how much you make it can be much more than that. Anyway, I better stop. I can feel a rant coming on.

We had a flat tax of 10% with the highest personal exemption in Canada. We now have 5 different "progressive" tax rates that go all the way to 15%. Low income earner still pay 10%, but middle class and up pay more for the privilege of these inept baristas killing our good paying jobs and giving us record deficits. In 4 years, I'd be surprised if 10 dippers are re-elected.

Oh so it's up by a max of 5% by the look of things.  



Hey Shen, welcome to how the rest of us do things.

This is on top of all the other new charges and fees we must pay for the privilege of having Rachel Notley as our premier.
