Read the PDF file!

It clearly indicates everything there.

Otherwise if you're too lazy (that's why you posted this thread) ... you should pickup the phone and call CCRA yourself.

the answer to every tax questions = "It depends"

i.e. your age, marital status, province of residence, etc

For federal tax, everyone has a "Basic Exemption" amount...i believe it's in the neighbourhood of $8400 for 2006
