So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22.5% tax rate now rises to 28.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $24,770 a year living in the region of Quebec, Canada, you will be taxed $5,562. That means that your net pay will be $19,208 per year, or $1,601 per month.
