This table presents income shares, thresholds, tax shares, and total counts of individual Canadian tax filers, with a focus on high income individuals (95% income threshold, 99% threshold, etc.). Income thresholds are based on national threshold values, regardless of selected geography; for example, the number of Nova Scotians in the top 1% will be calculated as the number of taxfiling Nova Scotians whose total income exceeded the 99% national income threshold. Different definitions of income are available in the table namely market, total, and after-tax income, both with and without capital gains.

In 2021, Canadians in the lowest decile had an average after-tax income of 12,700 Canadian dollars, while those in the highest decile had an income of 224,800 dollars, a gap of over 212,000 dollars. The province with the smallest average income for the lowest decile was Saskatchewan. By contrast, it was in Alberta that the income of the highest decile was the greatest, with an average after-tax income of almost 260,000 Canadian dollars. It was also in this province that the gap between the two deciles was the most significant.
