Worldwide, most individuals working and receiving a paycheck must pay taxes of some kind. Providing employees with a paycheck in Canada has different legislative obligations than the United States. Of course, both jurisdictions require employers to follow prescribed rules and regulations, but there are distinct differences, not only from the required deductions an employer must take, but also in the areas of employment standards, workers compensation and health care to name but a few.
