๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Canada โ€” Provincial Income & Sales Taxes

Canada's 10 provinces each levy their own income tax (4%โ€“25.75% top). Combined federal+provincial top rates exceed 50% in Quebec, Nova Scotia, and Ontario. Quebec has its own QPP and QST (9.975%). Alberta has no provincial sales tax. HST replaces GST+PST in Atlantic provinces and Ontario. Property taxes are municipal.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Lebanon โ€” Municipality & Qada Taxes

Lebanon's 8 governorates (mohafazat) and 1,108 municipalities levy local taxes including the built property tax (rasm al-istihlak โ€” a consumption tax on properties at 4%โ€“14% of rental value), commercial licence fees, and local service charges. The Ministry of Finance administers national taxes through a highly dysfunctional system following the 2019โ€“2020 financial collapse. Lebanon's banking sector meltdown destroyed much of the formal tax base. The lira has lost 98%+ of its value. Reconstruction under IMF guidance is the key priority.
