So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 23.5% tax rate now rises to 26.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.8% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $4,910 a year living in the region of Alberta, Canada, you will be taxed $1,153. That means that your net pay will be $3,757 per year, or $313 per month.
