Ontario also has a surtax that applies at certain personal income and tax levels.
The graph doesn't really reflect that at that highest rate in Ontario you're actually paying about 53.5% tax, while in Alberta you're paying 48%. Ontario's line would be pretty close to BC's, maybe slightly higher at $350,000.
Alberta does still have a tax advantage with no PST, low probate fees, no land transfer tax, lower tax rates and no medical premiums. We do get gouged in other ways with utilities and insurance but the taxes are the lowest of all the provinces.
