Episode 19 – Prorogued Parliament and the Impact on Tax Laws with John Oakey

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

About our guests:

As Vice-President of Taxation, John leads CPA Canada’s Tax group, which influences the development of an equitable, effective and efficient tax system in Canada, while also delivering practical information and fresh perspectives on tax to members and the broader tax community.
