I will concede that the lowest wage earners pay ONLY 45-50 percent, and the highest wage earners pay ONLY 58 percent. Maybe you should use those numbers when bragging about Canada's awesome taxes.
Well I personally pay zero taxes, and yes I am employed. :P

As far as sizes of towns and cities, we've got around seven cities of over one million people, and a lot of smaller cities and towns. Something like 80% of our population lives within 200 km of the U.S. border (stats are slightly fabricated, but close facsimiles to the real deal).
