Expanding Canada’s Economic Vision: Beyond the Capital Gains Tax Debate The proposed increase in capital gains tax has garnered much attention, and rightly so, yet it’s also crucial to widen the discussion to encompass a more comprehensive vision for Canada’s economic future. The debate around capital gains tax should not overshadow factors that hinder our country's productivity. A dip in productivity limits our collective resources and risks capital flight to more vibrant economies. We must explore the broader elements that influence prosperity for Canadians: 1. Elevating Productivity: Championing policies that enhance productivity is essential. Practical steps like investing in digital infrastructure and upskilling our workforce are critical to solidify our economic foundation and improve our competitiveness globally. 2. Cultivating Innovation: Stimulating innovation and entrepreneurship goes beyond capital gains policy. It involves a strategic shift from foreign to local investment, fostering education relevant to the future economy, and supporting research and development (R&D). Celebrating Canadian success stories can inspire a new wave of innovators (Shopify & Lulelmon are great examples). 3. Stimulating Competition: A dynamic and competitive business environment is the bedrock of a robust economy and job creation. Implementing regulatory reforms and providing incentives for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can foster a healthier level of competition across industries. Our aim should be to empower Canadian-owned businesses to flourish, construct the next generation of companies, and ensure our tax dollars transition from administration to impact. Changing the conversation can start to drive awareness and change.

What We Learned While Optimizing Celerity Craft for BC Tax Incentives Through the process of preparing Celerity Craft for tax credits like EBC and RRSP, we learned a lot about how these incentives can benefit both small companies and investors. These programs encourage investment in cleantech by offering potential tax savings, which can be a game-changer for growing companies like ours as we focus on sustainability. For small businesses, tax incentives help support innovation, making it easier to secure the funding needed for growth. For investors, it’s a win-win—backing clean technology while receiving tax benefits that make the investment even more efficient. We’re pleased to share what we’ve learned along the way, and how incentives like these can support the cleantech sector and its future. #MarineInnovation #CleanEnergy #ZeroEmissions #GreenInvesting #SustainableTransport #EcoTech #BlueEconomy #DACVTechnology (Dynamic Air Cushion Vehicle)

Canada needs a simpler, fairer tax system. CPA Canada is advocating for a principled approach, pushing back on complex, poorly implemented policies like the capital gains inclusion rate hike. A focus on clarity and consultation will benefit taxpayers and ensure better policy outcomes. #TaxReform

When it comes to the new capital gains inclusion rate, we're are all in a holding pattern. Roberto Trimboli, Director of Product Development at TaxCycle, explains the current state: “The CRA is in a similar boat as us, having to wait for legislation...We’re in a suspended state.” “That’s why many tax preparers are taking the approach of waiting until everything’s formalized and good to go,” Robert explains. 🔗Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/giNCKMnD  #TaxCycle #TaxSoftware #CapitalGains #CRACertification

From Jimmy Jean, CFA and I Federal Budget 2024: Which Came First? The Spending or the Taxing? https://lnkd.in/gU-N2urS As expected in our federal Budget 2024 preview note, the Government of Canada plans to run larger deficits than anticipated in the Fall Economic Statement 2023 (FES 2023). Despite this, the federal government expects to meet its two deficit-related fiscal anchors: maintaining the 2023–24 deficit at or below the Budget 2023 projection of $40.1B and maintaining a declining deficit-to-GDP ratio in 2024–25 while keeping deficits below 1% of GDP in 2026–27 and future years.   Program spending increased by an eyebrow-raising $56.5B over five years in Budget 2024 relative to what was in the FES 2023. New measures were heavily tilted toward housing, but additional spending to address affordability, productivity, defense and the needs of Indigenous people also contributed to the tally. At the same time, public debt charges edged slightly higher, contributing further to budget deficits in this big spending budget.   On the revenue side, the improved economic outlook wasn’t enough to keep the deficit in line with the fiscal anchors laid out in the FES 2023. As a result, the federal government intends to raise taxes, largely by increasing the tax rate on capital gains realized by individuals annually above $250K (excluding principal residence and select other income) and corporations. More modest tax breaks for entrepreneurs and other measures provided a minor offset.   Taken together, the debt-to-GDP ratio is expected to gradually decline from its recent peak of 42.1% reached in the 2023–24 fiscal year to 39% by the end of the forecast. As a result, the federal government expects to meet the threshold for its third and final fiscal anchor: lowering the debt-to-GDP ratio in 2024–25 relative to the FES 2023, and keeping it on a declining track thereafter.   We’re skeptical that the federal government will be able to meet its fiscal anchors in the coming years. As a result of the Government of Canada’s plan to reduce the number of non-permanent residents allowed to work and study in Canada, the economic outlook has deteriorated after 2024 from the time when forecasters were last surveyed. As such, the downside economic forecast is increasingly likely starting in 2025. And given spending edges higher with each new fiscal plan, taxes will need to rise to offset additional spending and/or deficits will be larger.

GWLRA, Hudson Pacific put holds on Vancouver office projects. Metro Vancouver outperforms most N. American cities, but challenges continue: NAI report While Vancouver has weathered the slumping office real estate market better than many other North American cities, challenges with high vacancy rates and sublet space being taken off the market as its viability dwindles are becoming more common. Some proposed office development plans have also been paused. “With the cost of construction and the cost of financing, some projects that looked viable are not as viable,” Rob DesBrisay, managing partner of real estate services firm NAI Commercial, told RENX.
