Fraser Institute finds Canadian pay gains shrink after tax
A Fraser Institute summary tracks Canadian income growth from 1986 to 1990 showing a 39 percent pre tax rise, 13.95 percent after inflation, and only 3.8 percent after income tax amid new taxes like GST and provincial sales levies. It cites multiple tax hikes from 1985 to 1991 under the Mulroney government and notes rising reliance on personal income tax revenues since 1956.
