The corner of Reddit called ‘antiwork’ features numerous tales of bosses you’d rather not work for and this is surely a classic of its kind.
It’s a picture of one particular management’s response after a rival employer offered to pay their staff considerably more.
‘A competing company is offering us 20 percent more to work for them,’ said Redditor daniel-moseley. ‘Management’s response …’
And it’s fair to say they got entirely the responses they deserved.
‘You should be eating a bowl of cereal when you walk into your bosses office and tell him you quit.’ GodzillaIG88
‘That looks like a case of upper management doesn’t give a shit and lower management trying to do what they can with stuff all money available. Classic case of much too little too late that will then cost the company a lot more to fix.’ Evil-Santa
‘Well, they are gonna be frosted when i loop my krispies outta there then.’ LonelyinTexas420
‘Cheerio!’ halarioushandle
‘All those outlets and they couldn’t even offer you all a pot of porridge. They don’t make overlords like they used to.’ Clear-Masterpiece416
‘This is worse than pizza parties. People get all butthurt when I point out— “you know we can buy pizza any time we want, right? Like filling out an ‘anonymous survey to win a pizza party’ shouldn’t be a thing.”

Revenu Québec and the <a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/tag/canada-revenue-agency" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canada Revenue Agency</a> (CRA) have released the income tax brackets for 2025, giving <a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/government-benefits-quebec-payment-dates-december-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Quebec residents</a> a clearer picture of how much they'll owe in income tax on the money they make next year.
</p><p> If you're new to taxes (or just want a refresher), here's a quick rundown: Tax brackets in Canada work on a progressive system. This means the more <a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/average-salary-quebec-canada-november-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">money you earn</a>, the higher the tax rate you'll pay — but only on the portion of your income that falls into each bracket.
</p><p>So, while earning more could mean paying a higher tax rate on that additional income, it doesn't mean that raise you've been hoping for will subject<em> all</em> your income to a higher tax rate. Plus, the brackets themselves are indexed to inflation each year, meaning if your income doesn't change, you could actually end up paying less tax.</p><p>All Canadians pay <a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/gst-tax-break-canada" target="_blank" rel="noopener">federal tax</a> to the CRA, but provinces and territories also have their own income tax rates for residents. Together, these federal and provincial rates determine how much income tax you'll owe each year.</p><p> Let's break it all down, including both the provincial and federal brackets and rates.</p><h3>Quebec's tax brackets for 2025</h3><br/><p>Revenu Québec has indexed the tax brackets at a rate of 2.85% for 2025. The rates haven't increased, only the brackets have, so if your income doesn't increase, your taxes won't either.</p><p>Here's how much you'll pay in provincial income tax based on your 2025 earnings:</p><ul><li><strong>14%</strong> on the first <strong>$53,255</strong> of taxable income</li><li><strong>19%</strong> on taxable income over <strong>$53,255</strong> up to <strong>$106,495</strong></li><li><strong>24%</strong> on taxable income over <strong>$106,495</strong> up to <strong>$129,590</strong></li><li><strong>25.75%</strong> on taxable income above <strong>$129,590</strong></li></ul><p>These rates apply only to the provincial portion of your taxes. You'll also need to pay federal taxes, which have their own brackets and rates.</p><h3>Canada's tax brackets for 2025</h3><br/><p>At the federal level, the CRA has set the indexation rate at 2.7% for 2025. Here's how your income will be taxed:</p><ul><li><strong>15%</strong> on the first <strong>$57,375</strong> of taxable income</li><li><strong>20.5%</strong> on taxable income over <strong>$57,375</strong> up to <strong>$114,750</strong></li><li><strong>26%</strong> on taxable income over <strong>$114,750</strong> up to <strong>$177,882</strong></li><li><strong>29%</strong> on taxable income over <strong>$177,882</strong> up to <strong>$253,414</strong></li><li><strong>33%</strong> on taxable income above <strong>$253,414</strong></li></ul><h3>What about the basic personal amount?</h3><br/><p>The basic personal amount (BPA) is a non-refundable tax credit that reduces how much of your income is taxed. For 2025 in Quebec, the provincial BPA will increase to <strong>$18,571</strong>, meaning you won't pay provincial tax on the first $18,571 of your earnings.</p><p>Meanwhile, the federal BPA for 2025 ranges from <strong>$14,538</strong> to <strong>$16,129</strong>, depending on your income level. If you make $177,882 or less next year, you qualify for the maximum federal BPA of $16,129.</p><p class="">Remember, these amounts apply to the income you'll <em>earn</em> in 2025 — not the taxes you'll <em>file</em> that year for 2024 income.
