What if your business could tap into a treasure trove of financial incentives?

Frankie and Sarah are joined by John Oakey, Vice-President of Taxation for CPA Canada, for a deep dive into the prorogation of Parliament and the ways this is shaking up tax legislation, with a particular focus on the proposed changes to the treatment of capital gains.

Frankie and Sarah discuss:

  • The effects of prorogation on existing and proposed tax bills
  • The uncertainty surrounding capital gains changes and suggestions for how taxpayers can prepare
  • Several options for managing tax liabilities amidst legislative limbo
  • Strategies for dealing with trust and investment taxation during these uncertain times
