Real tax rate

35.5%

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 31.1% tax rate now rises to 35.5%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.4% higher than what it seemed at first.

Summary

If you make $70,000 a year living in the region of Alberta, Canada, you will be taxed $21,735. That means that your net pay will be $48,265 per year, or $4,022 per month. Your average tax rate is 31.1% and your marginal tax rate is 30.5%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
