Ontario 2018 Personal Marginal
Income Tax Rates - Current and Previously Proposed
The Ontario 2018 Budget proposed to eliminate the surtax, and
revise the personal income tax brackets and rates, as per the table below.
The problem with the surtax is that it is increases the amount of personal tax
credits for taxpayers who are subject to the surtax. The new Conservative
government elected in June 2018 has indicated that the proposed changes will not
happen.
