Quebec runs its own income tax

Quebec collects its own provincial income tax through Revenu Québec, at 14% to 25.75%. Because Quebec funds programs the federal government runs elsewhere, federal tax for Quebec residents is reduced by 16.5%, shown as the Quebec abatement above.

Payroll deductions differ too. Quebec workers pay into the Quebec Pension Plan at 6.3% instead of CPP, EI at a reduced 1.3% because Quebec runs its own parental leave program, and Quebec Parental Insurance Plan premiums of 0.43% for it.
