Health care leads the count

Saskatoon, the province's largest city, had 266,141 people in 2021, up 7.7% in five years, and 10,238 businesses with employees in Statistics Canada's latest count. Health care and social assistance was the largest sector, with 1,465, ahead of retail and construction.

The sector includes the clinics and practices of physicians, dentists and other professionals, many of whom work through professional corporations. For them the questions are how to pay themselves, how much to leave in the corporation at Saskatchewan's 1% small business rate, which runs to the first $600,000, and whether a family member can properly be paid. HBT works on Saskatoon files remotely from Calgary.

What is the small business tax rate for a Saskatoon professional corporation?

10% combined on the first $500,000 of active business income, then 16% up to $600,000, because Saskatchewan applies its 1% rate further than the federal limit. Above that the combined rate is 27%.
