What makes Alberta different
Alberta pairs a low bottom rate with by far the largest basic personal amount in the country, which is why take-home here is usually at or near the top of the table. There is no provincial sales tax either, so the gap versus other provinces is wider in practice than the payroll numbers alone show.
