How Ontario Income Tax Works

Ontario uses a progressive income tax system, meaning your tax rate increases as your income increases. The province collects income tax through the Ontario government, with the money going toward various provincial programs and services.

The Ontario government also collects the Goods and Services Tax (GST) and the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), which are applied to most goods and services sold in Ontario. These taxes are collected by retailers and remitted to the government.

Ontario Tax Brackets

Worked Example

Let's calculate the provincial income tax for someone earning $80,000 per year in Ontario.

  1. First $45,142: $45,142 × 5.05% = $2,264.33
  2. Next $34,865 ($80,000 - $45,142): $34,865 × 9.15% = $3,188.62
  3. Total provincial income tax: $2,264.33 + $3,188.62 = $5,452.95

So, someone earning $80,000 per year would owe approximately $5,453 in provincial income tax.
