Tax – Canadian residents are taxed at the federal and provincial/territorial levels on their worldwide income. Certain income of controlled foreign affiliates is taxed on an accrual basis. Taxation also can arise in respect of investments in certain nonresident trusts and offshore investment funds. Nonresidents are taxed on Canadian-source income and on gains from the disposition of taxable Canadian property. Employment income (including most employment benefits), certain investment income, and profits earned from a business or profession are taxable at the individual’s applicable personal tax rate. Dividends received from a Canadian corporation are subject to a more favorable tax regime. Federal tax rates are progressive up to 33% (27.56% for residents of Quebec). Fifty percent of capital gains, less allowable capital losses, is included in income and taxed at the individual’s applicable income tax rate.
