So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 1.6% tax rate now rises to 3.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $216 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $3.41. That means that your net pay will be $213 per year, or $17.72 per month. Your average tax rate is 1.6% and your marginal tax rate is 1.6%. 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 $1.58, hence, your net pay will only increase by $98.42.
