You pay CPP at 5.95% on earnings above $3,500. EI is 1.63% of your pay. Yukon uses the same basic personal amount as the federal government.

What a raise is worth

A raise from $30,000 to $40,000 would add about $7,357 to your take-home pay, so you keep 74% of the extra $10,000. CPP and EI still come off each extra dollar until you reach the yearly maximums.

Your marginal rate of 18.9% is the share of your next dollar of salary that goes to income tax. Your average rate of 6.8% 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 18.9% of the amount in tax; see the TFSA vs RRSP and FHSA calculators.
