More Canadians joined the ranks of high-income earners with women making some gains. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Dark clouds of recession and budget adjustment loom over Canada.<\/p>\n

The highest-paid Canadians had the biggest pay raises over the past decade, as the country’s economy swung wildly into a deep recession and into a commodities-led boom.<\/p>\n

This has brought inequality earnings in Canada, where the top 20% among earners saw their wage increase 9% from 2005 to 2015 and the middle cohort saw an increment of 6% over the same period.<\/p>\n

The rich became richest and the middle class just got some more money. Men still dominated and represented 77% of all 1 per centers richest.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As informed by StatsCan -the Government of Canada government agency commissioned with producing statistics-, the number of Canadians who made it into the top 1% rose by 2,420 to 270,925 in 2015, with the biggest gains in Ontario and British Columbia.<\/p>\n

The areas with the most growth included Vancouver, Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo, Hamilton and Toronto.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the number of 1 per centers dropped in Alberta, as the oil collapse rocked the economy and led to thousands of job losses in the natural resources sector and beyond.<\/p>\n

Wood Buffalo, the region that includes Fort McMurray, the heart of the oil sands, shouldered most of the declines. The number of 1 per centers fell to 3,130 in 2015 from 5,460 in the previous year.<\/p>\n

The surge in oil prices during this decade vaulted more Canadians into the upper echelons of the income ladder.<\/p>\n

Nowhere was this seen more than in Alberta, where the minimum amount required for men to be part of the 1% in Canmore was $568,852 and nearly half of the workers in the Fort McMurray\/Wood Buffalo region earned at least\u00a0CD$100,000.<\/p>\n

What about taxes? The survey showed that, on average, high-income earners had a bigger tax burden.<\/p>\n

Those in the 0.01 per cent cohort paid, on average, CD$2.6 million in federal and provincial or territorial taxes in 2015. The 0.1 per cent paid, on average, CD$736,800 in taxes. The 1 per centers paid, on average, CD$183,000 in taxes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
