Summary
If you make $71,615 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $18,911. That means that your net pay will be $52,704 per year, or $4,392 per month. Your average tax rate is 26.4% and your marginal tax rate is 27.5%. 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 $27.50, hence, your net pay will only increase by $72.50.
