Keep in mind Quebec is an outlier mostly because Revenu Québec collects income taxes and remits lower federal amounts to the CRA, with the difference in federal income taxes collected being counted as part of Quebec's equalization transfers. Effective federal income tax rates on individuals in Quebec are "abated" by 16.5%.
