You define simpletonCan't even get the exchange rate correct, eh?
Its the simple things that get past you.
Hey larue, why don't you try actually reading the study for once.You define simpleton
You ignored the sales tax & other hidden taxes such as the gasoline taxes & carbon taxes incurred delivering the clue to you
You also ignored the regulatory burden of the government ensuring the clue is suitable for you, which is redundant as any clue would be beneficial for a clueless moron
Perhaps you should read it yourselfHey larue, why don't you try actually reading the study for once.
Here's the methodology.
http://www.oecd.org/tax/tax-policy/taxing-wages-methodology.pdf
Then you could try something new, speaking about something you understand a little.
Hey, you can read. Who knew?Perhaps you should read it yourself
no mention of sales taxes, gasoline taxes, carbon taxes ..other hidden taxes ............... etc in that methodology

As of September 2017, the average wage for Canadian employees was $986 a week – or just over $51,000 a year.
Layer in provincial taxes , sales taxes, gasoline taxes and the myriad of other tax grabs and we are much closer to 50% on average,
Way more than the Americans
Why are you so stupid?
As usual you try and combat posted data with your own opinions. It's okay to have a high opinion of yourself but if you want anyone to share it you should probably try posing some actual data.Do honestly believe ...

Once again your statement is false. Average state/local sales tax rate is approx 7%. What is it with liberals and their aversion to facts?Hey, you can read. Who knew?
Only problem:
Sales taxes in the US are about the same as Canada.
Try again.
You're still on the losing end of this one.
Er mr rocket scientist that study is based on 2015 data which was based on tax policies your dream lover Harper put into place. So firstly, that was largely the doing of conservatives and secondly it is obsolete data as Trudeau has changed the tax code quite a bit. Especially when it comes to child tax benefits and child benefits for the poor.http://business.financialpost.com/opinion/taxes-the-average-canadian-familys-largest-expense
In reality, the average Canadian household spends more on taxes than any other expense. Specifically, in 2016 the average Canadian family (including single Canadians) earned $83,105 in income and paid $35,283 in total taxes. That’s 42.5 per cent of income going to taxes.
https://taxfoundation.org/comparison-tax-burden-labor-oecd-2016/
The total tax burden faced by average wage earners in the United States is 31.7 percent of their pretax earnings, paying $17,558 in taxes in 2015, with $9,167 in individual income taxes and $8,391 in payroll taxes.
31.7% vs 42.5%
Who is clued out, now ?
Why are you so stupid?
Who do you think you are fooling ?Er mr rocket scientist that study is based on 2015 data which was based on tax policies your dream lover Harper put into place.

Original poster was based on 2017 data so the Trudeau plan was still not fully implemented including the very generous child benefit payments. The second link you posted was based on 2015 data, so please base any arguments on 2017 data or please take a hikeWho do you think you are fooling ?

So that study could not have been based on 2015 data as you say
Bottom line the total tax burden on Canadians is much higher than in the US , contrary to what the title of this thread stated
And the Canadian average is about 10%, like I said, not that far off.Once again your statement is false. Average state/local sales tax rate is approx 7%. What is it with liberals and their aversion to facts?
Any benefit from the child benefit program will be offset by the carbon taxOriginal poster was based on 2017 data so the Trudeau plan was still not fully implemented including the very generous child benefit payments. The second link you posted was based on 2015 data, so please base any arguments on 2017 data or please take a hike
More false information from FrankfooterAnd the Canadian average is about 10%, like I said, not that far off.

Nor do those studies take into account the carbon taxCompare what the average cost of a gallon of gas is the U.S. as opposed to what the equivalent would be in Ontario. Most of the difference is taxes.
And the America dollar is worth more than 25% more than the Canadian dollar, so what an American is left with after taxes is also 25% more.
And studies from 2015, 2016 or even 2017 don't take in to account the Trump tax cut.
I divided by the number of provinces, as they calculate avg sales taxes in the states.More false information from Frankfooter
His link shows all provinces save Alberta (& the territories) have double digit combined Federal / provincial sales taxes with the biggies Quebec @ 15%, BC @ 12% and Ont @ 13%
Since Ont , B.C. & Que represent 60% of the population and therefore the sales, it is mathematically impossible that the average Canadian pays less than 12% sales tax
Even if it was 10%, which it isn't close to, it's still 43% higher than the average US rate. That isn't far off in your books? You are no doubt a Liberal.And the Canadian average is about 10%, like I said, not that far off.
