Dear John,

Our latest study finds that – despite claims from certain groups – governments across Canada already maintain some of the most progressive tax systems in the industrialized world.

Tax progressivity means people who earn more, pay a higher share of total taxes than those who earn less.

Newfoundland and Labrador maintains the most progressive tax system in Canada, and the second-most progressive system out of the 45 jurisdictions measured. Saskatchewan’s tax system is the least progressive in Canada, yet it still ranks 17th-highest overall.

In other words, all Canadian provinces rank in the top half of OECD jurisdictions for tax progressivity.

Find out where your province ranked here [[link removed]], and be sure to share the news on social media!

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis
