Le Québec et l’Est du Canada ont les taux d’imposition les plus élevés à l’échelle nationale pour les personnes et les ménages qui gagnent 100 000 $ ou plus par année, et ont également les pourcentages les plus bas de déclarants d’impôt dont le revenu dépasse 100 000 $, selon une nouvelle étude publiée aujourd’hui par l’Institut Fraser, un groupe de réflexion indépendant et non partisan sur les politiques publiques canadiennes.
High Tax Rates on Top Earners in Atlantic Canada and Quebec (Taux d'imposition élevés des hauts salariés au Canada atlantique et au Québec) révèle que les couples sans enfants, les couples avec un enfant et les couples ayant deux enfants au Québec ont des taux de revenu personnel plus élevés que partout ailleurs au Canada. Les personnes célibataires au Québec qui gagnent plus de 100 000 $ ont le deuxième taux d’imposition le plus élevé à l’échelle nationale après l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard.
Il est important de noter que, sur les dix provinces canadiennes, le Québec a le septième plus faible pourcentage de déclarants qui gagnent 100 000 $ ou plus par an et que les provinces de l’Atlantique sont également en queue de peloton pour la proportion de déclarants qui gagnent plus de 100 000 $. L’Île-du-Prince-Édouard a la plus faible part, suivie du Nouveau-Brunswick (9e), de la Nouvelle-Écosse (8e) et de Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador (6e), tandis que les provinces de l’Ontario et de l’Ouest canadien ont toutes des actions plus élevées.
