Frequently asked questions

What is the take-home pay on a C$95,000 salary in Alberta?

On a C$95,000 salary, an Alberta resident takes home about C$70,816 per year, or roughly C$5,901 per month, after federal and provincial income tax, CPP and EI in 2026.

Why is Alberta take-home pay higher than Ontario on the same salary?

Alberta's provincial rates start at 8% (versus Ontario's 5.05%), but Alberta has no surtax and no health premium — the Ontario surtax and health premium of up to C$900 significantly increase the effective rate for middle and higher earners. For most salaries, Albertans keep noticeably more of their pay. At C$95,000, the difference versus Ontario is around C$218 per year.

Does Alberta have provincial sales tax?

No. Alberta is the only province with no provincial sales tax (PST) and no harmonised sales tax (HST). Only the 5% federal GST applies to purchases, which further boosts Albertans' real purchasing power versus provinces like Ontario (13% HST) or BC (12% HST+PST).
