Depends on if you are talking corporate tax rates, personal income tax, etc.

Though it feels like some of the statistics are biased towards Canada.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxation_in_Canada provides a comparison of personal income tax with Canada being higher than the US.

Canada Single no kids - 31.6% US Single no kids - 29.1%

Canada Married 2 kids - 21.5% US Married 2 kids - 11.9%

My experience is that I have less disposable income in Canada (based on my living previous in Pennsylvania, Illinois and Texas), but I have more available services including healthcare.
