Don Wright, former head of British Columbia’s public service and deputy minister to the premier, wrote a very truething here the other day. In “creating jobs,” he wrote, governments shouldn’t forget basic math. The quotation marks are because governments don’t actually create jobs, they merely shuffle resources around, discouraging some activities with rules and taxes and encouraging others with subsidies, tax credits and so on.

Expect the CRA to come knocking if you ‘hire’ your spouse to split income
With taxpayers in eight out of 10 provinces facing a 2024 top marginal personal income tax rate exceeding 50 per cent, it should come as no surprise that some couples are looking at ways to income split, especially when one spouse or partner is in a much higher tax bracket than the other. Consider, for example, a British Columbia high-income taxpayer facing a top marginal rate of 53.5 per cent. If their spouse or partner earns under about $55,000, their marginal rate is only 22.7 per cent — a spread of more than 30 percentage points.
