you see where I'm going. Except...

Individual Q earning $100k in Quebec pays $11,322 in federal tax leaving them $88,678 to cover their provincial, local, and personal liabilities!?!?!?!

It's an outrage! Except its just that Quebec opted out of certain federal programs and runs their own versions out of their provincial budget. Maybe that's a better deal for some Quebecers (like those who take parental leave), maybe it's not for others. Who gives a ####.
