When I was single, I was filling out NC/US Federal tax returns and Alberta/Cdn Federal tax returns. My Alberta/Canada taxes were a few thousand lower.
I think in the US, we benefit more if we are a single income 2 kids type of family. I'm in a 2 income/1 kid situation, and taxes are still comparable to what I was when single.
There are some crazy other taxes here too. For instance, I have to pay $3200/year for personal property taxes on our 2 cars.
