Take-Home Pay
(After Tax) · 2024 estimate

Of the $118,342 Karen Simpson earned in 2024, roughly $85,408 would remain after income tax, CPP and EI, an all-in deduction rate of about 27.8%. That is about 15% less than the $139,097 paid in 2023. That is about 29% below the 2024 median of $165,618 for Secondary School Principal on the Sunshine List. Most School Boards employees belong to OTPP for teachers or OMERS, so actual take-home is likely another 7–10% lower after pension contributions.
