The largest legal tax break I am aware of is when buying dividend stocks use your RRSP to recoup losses if they go down. Do NOT make the mistake of using it for all your stock purchases. If you make a profit pay the taxes due on it; otherwise write down your losses with your RRSP.
Thanks for detailed tax education. I invest using contracts for difference (CFD), through OANDA brokerage. These are leveraged products 1:50. The broker loans money to trader and charges interest ONLY if positions are held overnight . These charges called holding costs or overnight financing charges. Do you know if these charges are tax deductible expenses?
Thank you for nicely presented. But for newcomers, who have no income right now, only have some deposited money into savings account. Received some interest income from savings. Should such people be liable to pay any tax?
Hey, was wondering if you have knowledge on how to handle your Canadian taxes when you live in the US and also maybe how to pick a CPA and how much is reasonable to expect to pay them and how much they can help in decision making during the year as well? If you can make a video about some of these questions I really appreciate it
At 5:00 in the video, I think in example 2, the top heading should say $110 000 instead of $100 000, seemed a bit confusing at first how it got to the third tax bracket
No they are not. Eligible dividends are from private companies mostly. ETF and stock dividends are non-eligible and are taxed far less even… i could see how the screen recording I used might be confusing. Hope you understand!

How much capital loss can you claim on your taxes ? Is there a limit ?

I don't. I would contact a CPA. They should have that answer for you immediately. thanks for watching

Yes, you'll have to at the very least file a return, even if tax isn't to be paid.

I’ll look into it for future content but don’t have much experience in that field for the moment
Can you show how to calculate your loss if you use wealthaimple for investments?
You should be able to access performance reports and statements!
At least when it comes to taxes…Canada has to be near the top!!
Yea, gotta be at the top for something... :/

Hey Derek, good eye, you're right. Typo'd it when screen recoding that bit. Thanks for watching and hope you still found the rest pertinent!
Are the payouts from ETFs classed as eligible dividends ? I'm confused . lol
No they are not. Eligible dividends are from private companies mostly. ETF and stock dividends are non-eligible and are taxed far less even… i could see how the screen recording I used might be confusing. Hope you understand!

You;d most likely have to amortize the tools, as they aren't recurring expenses. Not sure about the form. I'd ask an accountant quickly
