At $60,000 Nunavut leaves the most take-home ($48,773) and Nova Scotia the least ($44,726). At $100,000 the highest is Nunavut ($76,654) and the lowest Nova Scotia ($68,867).

What changed in Canadian income tax for 2026?

The lowest federal rate is 14% for the full year (it was 15% until June 2025), brackets rose 2% for inflation, and the federal basic personal amount is $16,452. B.C. raised its lowest rate to 5.60%, P.E.I. added a 20% bracket over $200,000, and Newfoundland and Labrador raised its basic personal amount to $13,094.
