This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
Canada’s income tax system is based on a progressive tax structure, which means that individuals pay higher tax rates as their income increases. There are different tax brackets for different income levels, and each bracket has a corresponding tax rate. The federal government and each provincial or territorial government set their own tax rates and brackets, which may vary depending on the jurisdiction. Therefore, individuals pay both federal and provincial or territorial income tax, based on their taxable income and the tax rates applicable to their income brackets in their respective jurisdictions12
