Tax Rates in Alberta

The 2022 combined personal federal and Alberta tax rates had tax increases in the $155,625 through $221,708 tax brackets in comparison to the prior year due to federal tax rate increases, while more income qualified at the bottom two tax brackets.  There was no increase at the top tax bracket.  This is a positive for taxpayers with less than $155,625 in income and at the cost of those above that amount.
