Canada uses marginal tax brackets: each dollar of income is taxed at the rate of the bracket it falls into, not your highest rate on every dollar. If you earn $80,000 in Newfoundland and Labrador, only the portion above the second federal threshold is taxed at 20.5% — the first dollars are taxed at 15%, and so on.
Both the federal and Newfoundland and Labrador basic personal amounts ($16,452 federally, $13,094 provincially) are non-refundable credits — they shield the first portion of your income from each respective level of tax.
