Before you rely on this
Open the official page linked on the row and confirm the rate and the date. Governments change rates on their own dates, and we check pages monthly, so a rate can be out of date for a short time. Some workers have other rates or are not covered; each province's page lists the exceptions the official page states. This is general information, not legal advice.
General information only, not legal, tax or financial advice. The official page always governs. See Sources and how we check.
