according to the canadian union of public employees (CUPE), top marginal tax rates of 53% in canada are actually too low and should be over 80%. they also argue that we should rely on public sector job growth since 1/4 canadians are currently employed by the gov (which they argue is a good thing). https://cupe.on.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/action-plan-adopted-2025-EN.pdf

don't worry, this rate wouldn't apply to you 😉 models that propose 80%+ tax are aimed at extreme top earners, CEOs, hedge-fund gains, earning well into the high seven figures.
