Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $0 to pay you $12. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $0.83 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
8.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 8.3% tax rate now rises to 8.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make $12 a year living in the region of Nova Scotia, Canada, you will be taxed $1. That means that your net pay will be $11 per year, or $1 per month. Your average tax rate is 10.3% and your marginal tax rate is 10.2%. 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 $10.2, hence, your net pay will only increase by $89.8.
