Request Summary: I am looking for data to model on a Lorenz Curve for Canada for the purpose of accurately discussing modelling income tax in my classroom. To do this, I would need information on the number of people making between Income/Population 0-9,999CAD / #20,000-29,999CAD / #etc.. up to the maximum bin which contains a population over some arbitrary meaningful threshold (20,000,000CAD perhaps) typically data is not needed at this resolution to create a Lorenz curve, but my desire to model changes in government revenue as changes are made to the progressive income tax system requires data of higher resolution.
