Ontario residents with taxable income above $20,000 pay a health premium through their income tax. The premium rises in phased steps from $0 at $20,000 to the maximum of $900 a year at taxable income above $200,600. Payroll withholding includes it, so most employees never pay it separately.
British Columbia's Budget 2026 raised the lowest provincial rate from 5.06% to 5.60% for the whole 2026 tax year, and raised the credit rate and the BC tax reduction, now up to $690, to soften it for lower incomes. Pay cheques used the old rate until July, so 2026 withholding can fall short of the tax on the return.
