Abstract

This paper examines, using data from the Statistics Canada surveys of consumer finance (1981) and family expenditure (1982), the incidence by income classes of the taxes and government expenditures in Quebec for 1981. This is the first study of this topic: it shows that taxes are somewhat regressive while government expenditures are progressive. Ce texte examine, à l’aide des données des enquêtes de Statistique Canada sur les finances (1981) et les dépenses (1982) des consommateurs, l’incidence par classe de revenus des recettes et des dépenses gouvernementales au Québec pour 1981. Il s’agit de la première étude sur ce sujet. Au total la fiscalité est quelque peu régressive et les dépenses gouvernementales progressives.
