Ontario is about the same.
Alberta has 0 tax on anything at about 18k or below. With the other provinces if they make 18k or below they're still paying a portion of taxes. That to me is more regressive.
If you want to make changes to the Alberta tax system. You could raise the exemption slightly to something like 24k which is fairly realistic and then bump the flat tax above that by a point or two. That would be a fair tax.

Take a 40K earner and compare after tax dollars in each province. Albertan will pay more than most others.
