Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $18.59 to pay you $149,000. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $5.35 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
53.5%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 53.4% tax rate now rises to 53.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $38,740,000 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $20,704,763. That means that your net pay will be $18,035,237 per year, or $1,502,936 per month. Your average tax rate is 53.5% and your marginal tax rate is 53.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $53.53, hence, your net pay will only increase by $46.47.
