Environmental levies (bottles, tires, oil etc.)

Annual school fees

High School exam fees

Garbage bag sticker fees (if you live in a region that charges a per bag fee for curb side pickup)

And if the Liberal's have anything to do with it, there'll also be a Carbon Tax, although there's already one in British Columbia.

Answer 4

To Start with Deductions from Pay

Canada Federal Income Taxes

Province Income Taxes

The next three are not really taxes, but deductions from you pay nevertheless

Employment Insurance (EI)

QPIP

CPP/QPP

After that there is

GST Good and Services Taxes

PST Province Sales Taxes (Excluding Alberta)

There are also numerous "hidden" taxes on alot of products you purchase. Sin taxes on Cigarettes, Wine, Beer, and Achol.  Exsice and Provincial taxes included in the price per liter of gas before GST & QST.  Telecommunication fees on Cell and Phone bills

I'm sure I've missed a few, but it's a good start.
