Your CPP is at the 2026 maximum, including CPP2 on earnings between $74,600 and $85,000. EI is at the 2026 maximum of $1,123. British Columbia gives a BC tax reduction of up to $690 to lower incomes, which is included here.
What a raise is worth
A raise from $100,000 to $110,000 would add about $6,952 to your take-home pay, so you keep 70% of the extra $10,000. Part of the difference is because your CPP and EI are already at the yearly maximum, so more of each extra dollar is only income tax.
Your marginal rate of 28.2% is the share of your next dollar of salary that goes to income tax. Your average rate of 18.9% is lower because the first part of your income is taxed at lower rates and covered by credits. An RRSP or FHSA contribution would save you roughly 28.2% of the amount in tax; see the TFSA vs RRSP and FHSA calculators.
