STATUTES OF CANADA 2013
CHAPTER 34

An Act to amend the Income Tax Act, the Excise Tax Act, the Federal-Provincial Fiscal Arrangements Act, the First Nations Goods and Services Tax Act and related legislation

ASSENTED TO

26th JUNE, 2013

BILL C-48

RECOMMENDATION

His Excellency the Governor General recommends to the House of Commons the appropriation of public revenue under the circumstances, in the manner and for the purposes set out in a measure entitled “An Act to amend the Income Tax Act, the Excise Tax Act, the Federal-Provincial Fiscal Arrangements Act, the First Nations Goods and Services Tax Act and related legislation”.

SUMMARY

Part 1 of this enactment implements, in accordance with proposals announced in the March 4, 2010 Budget and released for comment on August 27, 2010, amendments to the provisions of the Income Tax Act governing the taxation of non-resident trusts and their beneficiaries and of Canadian taxpayers who hold interests in offshore investment fund property.

Parts 2 and 3 implement various technical amendments in respect of the Income Tax Act and the Income Tax Regulations relating to the taxation of Canadian multinational corporations with foreign affiliates. The amendments in Part 2 are based on draft proposals released on December 18, 2009. Among other things, Part 2 includes the amendments to the foreign affiliate surplus rules in the Income Tax Regulations that are consequential to the foreign affiliate changes to the Income Tax Act announced in the March 19, 2007 Budget. The amendments in Part 3 are based on draft proposals released on August 19, 2011. Among other things, Part 3 includes revisions to the measures proposed in a package of draft legislation released on February 27, 2004 dealing primarily with reorganizations of, and distributions from, foreign affiliates.

Part 4 deals with provisions of the Income Tax Act that are not amended in Parts 1, 2, 3 or 5 in which the following private law concepts are used: right and interest, real and personal property, life estate and remainder interest, tangible and intangible property and joint and several liability. It enacts amendments, released for comments on July 16, 2010, to ensure that those provisions are bijural, in other words, that they reflect both the common law and the civil law in both linguistic versions. Similar amendments are made in Parts 1, 2, 3 and 5 to ensure that any provision of the Act enacted or amended by those Parts are also bijural.

Part 5 implements a number of income tax measures proposed in the March 4, 2010 Budget and released for comment on May 7, 2010 and August 27, 2010. Most notably, it enacts amendments

(a) relating to specified leasing property;

(b) to provide that conversions of specified investment flow-through (SIFT) trusts and partnerships into corporations are subject to the same loss utilization restrictions as are transactions between corporations;

(d) implementing a regime for information reporting of tax avoidance transactions.

Part 5 also implements certain income tax measures that were previously announced. Most notably, it enacts amendments announced

(a) on January 27, 2009, relating to the Apprenticeship Completion Grant;

(b) on May 3, 2010, to clarify that computers continue to be eligible for the Atlantic investment tax credit;

(c) on July 16, 2010, relating to technical changes to the Income Tax Act which include amendments relating to the income tax treatment of restrictive covenants;

(d) on August 27, 2010, relating to the introduction of the Fairness for the Self-Employed Act;

(e) on November 5, 2010 and October 31, 2011, relating to technical changes to the Income Tax Act;

(f) on December 16, 2010, relating to changes to the income tax rules concerning real estate investment trusts; and

(g) on March 16, 2011, relating to the deductibility of contingent amounts, withholding tax applicable to certain interest payments made to non-residents, and certain life insurance corporation reserves.

Finally, Part 5 implements certain further technical income tax measures. Most notably, it enacts amendments relating to

(a) labour-sponsored venture capital corporations;

(b) the allocation of income of airline corporations; and

Part 6 amends the Excise Tax Act to implement technical and housekeeping amendments that include relieving the goods and services tax and the harmonized sales tax on the administrative service of collecting and distributing the levy on blank media imposed under the Copyright Act announced on October 31, 2011.

Part 7 amends the Federal-Provincial Fiscal Arrangements Act to clarify, for greater certainty, the authority of the Minister of Finance and of the Minister of National Revenue to amend administration agreements if the change in question is explicitly contemplated by the language of the agreement and to confirm any amendments that may have been made to those agreements. Part 7 also amends the Federal-Provincial Fiscal Arrangements Act and the First Nations Goods and Services Tax Act to enable the First Nations goods and services tax, imposed under a tax administration agreement between the federal government and an Aboriginal government, to be administered through a provincial administration system, if the province also administers the federal goods and services tax.

Part 8 contains coordinating amendments in respect of those provisions of the Income Tax Act that are amended by this Act and also by the Jobs and Growth Act, 2012 or that need coordination with the Pooled Registered Pension Plans Act.

Ceasing to be an exempt foreign trust

(6) If at a specified time in a trust’s taxation year it is an exempt foreign trust, at a particular time in the immediately following taxation year (determined without reference to this subsection) the trust ceases to be an exempt foreign trust (otherwise than because of becoming resident in Canada), and at the particular time there is a resident contributor to, or resident beneficiary under, the trust,

(a) the trust’s taxation year (determined without reference to this subsection) that includes the particular time is deemed to have ended immediately before the particular time and a new taxation year of the trust is deemed to begin at the particular time; and

(b) for the purpose of determining the trust’s fiscal period after the particular time, the trust is deemed not to have established a fiscal period before the particular time.

Limit to amount recoverable

(7) The maximum amount recoverable under the provisions referred to in paragraph (3)(d) at any particular time from a person in respect of a trust (other than a person that is deemed, under subsection (12) or (13), to be a contributor or a resident contributor to the trust) and a particular taxation year of the trust is the person’s recovery limit at the particular time in respect of the trust and the particular year if

(a) either

(i) the person is liable under a provision referred to in paragraph (3)(d) in respect of the trust and the particular year solely because the person was a resident beneficiary under the trust at a specified time in respect of the trust in the particular year, or

(ii) at a specified time in respect of the trust in the particular year, the total of all amounts each of which is the amount, at the time it was made, of a contribution to the trust made before the specified time by the person or by another person or partnership not dealing at arm’s length with the person, is not more than the greater of

(A) $10,000, and

(B) 10% of the total of all amounts each of which was the amount, at the time it was made, of a contribution made to the trust before the specified time;

(b) except if the total determined in subparagraph (a)(ii) in respect of the person and all persons or partnerships not dealing at arm’s length with the person is $10,000 or less, the person has filed on a timely basis under section 233.2 all information returns required to be filed by the person before the particular time in respect of the trust (or on any later day that is acceptable to the Minister); and

(c) it is reasonable to conclude that for each transaction that occurred before the end of the particular year at the direction of, or with the acquiescence of, the person

(i) none of the purposes of the transaction was to enable the person to avoid or minimize any liability under a provision referred to in paragraph (3)(d) in respect of the trust, and

(ii) the transaction was not part of a series of transactions any of the purposes of which was to enable the person to avoid or minimize any liability under a provision referred to in paragraph (3)(d) in respect of the trust.

Recovery limit

(8) The recovery limit referred to in paragraph (3)(e) and subsection (7) at a particular time of a particular person in respect of a trust and a particular taxation year of the trust is the amount, if any, by which the greater of

(a) the total of all amounts each of which is

(i) an amount received or receivable after 2000 and before the particular time

(A) by the particular person on the disposition of all or part of the person’s interest as a beneficiary under the trust, or

(B) by a person or partnership (that was, when the amount became receivable, a specified party in respect of the partic-ular person) on the disposition of all or part of the specified party’s interest as a beneficiary under the trust,

(ii) an amount (other than an amount described in subparagraph (i)) made payable by the trust after 2000 and before the particular time to

(A) the particular person because of the interest of the particular person as a beneficiary under the trust, or

(iii) an amount received after August 27, 2010, by the particular person, or a person or partnership (that was, when the amount was received, a specified party in respect of the particular person), as a loan from the trust to the extent that the amount has not been repaid,

(iv) an amount (other than an amount described in any of subparagraphs (i) to (iii)) that is the fair market value of a benefit received or enjoyed, after 2000 and before the particular time, from or under the trust by

(A) the particular person, or

(B) a person or partnership that was, when the benefit was received or enjoyed, a specified party in respect of the particular person, or

(v) the maximum amount that would be recoverable from the particular person at the end of the trust’s 2006 taxation year under subsection (2) (as it read in its application to taxation years that end before 2007) if the trust had tax payable under this Part at the end of the trust’s 2006 taxation year and that tax payable exceeded the total of the amounts described in respect of the particular person under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (as they read in their application to taxation years that end before 2007), except to the extent that the amount so recoverable is in respect of an amount that is included in the particular person’s recovery limit because of subparagraph (i) or (ii), and

(b) the total of all amounts each of which is the amount, when made, of a contribution to the trust before the particular time by the particular person,

exceeds the total of all amounts each of which is

(c) an amount recovered before the particular time from the particular person in connection with a liability of the particular person (in respect of the trust and the particular year or a preceding taxation year of the trust) that arose because of the application of subsection (3) (or the application of this section as it read in its application to taxation years that end before 2007),

(d) an amount (other than an amount in respect of which this paragraph has applied in respect of any other person) recovered before the particular time from a specified party in respect of the particular person in connection with a liability of the particular person (in respect of the trust and the particular year or a preceding taxation year of the trust) that arose because of the application of subsection (3) (or the application of this section as it read in its application to taxation years that end before 2007), or

(e) the amount, if any, by which the particular person’s tax payable under this Part for any taxation year in which an amount described in any of subparagraphs (a)(i) to (iv) was paid, became payable, was received, became receivable or was enjoyed by the particular person exceeds the amount that would have been the particular person’s tax payable under this Part for that taxation year if no such amount were paid, became payable, were received, became receivable or were enjoyed by the particular person in that taxation year.

Determination of contribution amount — restricted property

(9) If a person or partnership contributes at any time restricted property to a trust, the amount of the contribution at that time is deemed, for the purposes of this section, to be the greater of

(a) the amount, determined without reference to this subsection, of the contribution at that time, and

(b) the amount that is the greatest fair market value of the restricted property, or property substituted for it, in the period that begins immediately after that time and ends at the end of the third calendar year that ends after that time.

Contributor — resident in Canada within 60 months after contribution

(10) In applying this section at each specified time, in respect of a trust’s taxation year, that is before the particular time at which a contributor to the trust becomes resident in Canada within 60 months after making a contribution to the trust, the contribution is deemed to have been made at a time other than a non-resident time of the contributor if

(a) in applying the definition “non-resident time” in subsection (1) at each of those specified times, the contribution was made at a non-resident time of the contributor; and

(b) in applying the definition “non-resident time” in subsection (1) immediately after the particular time, the contribution is made at a time other than a non-resident time of the contributor.

Application of subsections (12) and (13)

(11) Subsections (12) and (13) apply to a trust or a person in respect of a trust if

(a) at any time property of a trust (referred to in this subsection and subsections (12) and (13) as the “original trust”) is transferred or loaned, directly or indirectly, in any manner, to another trust (referred to in this subsection and subsections (12) and (13) as the “transferee trust”);

(b) the original trust

(i) is deemed to be resident in Canada immediately before that time because of paragraph (3)(a),

(ii) would be deemed to be resident in Canada immediately before that time because of paragraph (3)(a) if this section were read without reference to paragraph (a) of the definition “connected contributor” in subsection (1) and paragraph (a) of the definition “resident contributor” in that subsection,

(iii) was deemed to be resident in Canada immediately before that time because of subsection (1) as it read in its application to taxation years that end before 2007, or

(iv) would have been deemed to be resident in Canada immediately before that time because of subsection (1) as it read in its application to taxation years that end before 2007 if that subsection were read in that application without reference to subclause (b)(i)(A)(III) of that subsection; and

(c) it is reasonable to conclude that one of the reasons the transfer or loan is made is to avoid or minimize a liability under this Part that arose, or that would otherwise have arisen, because of the application of this section (or the application of this section as it read in its application to taxation years that end before 2007).

Deemed resident contributor

(12) The original trust described in subsection (11) (including a trust that has ceased to exist) is deemed to be, at and after the time of the transfer or loan referred to in that subsection, a resident contributor to the transferee trust for the purpose of applying this section in respect of the transferee trust.

Deemed contributor

(13) A person (including any person that has ceased to exist) that is, at the time of the transfer or loan referred to in subsection (11), a contributor to the original trust, is deemed to be at and after that time

(a) a contributor to the transferee trust; and

(b) a connected contributor to the transferee trust, if at that time the person is a connected contributor to the original trust.

Restricted property — exception

(14) A particular property that is, or will be, at any time held, loaned or transferred, as the case may be, by a particular person or partnership is not restricted property held, loaned or transferred, as the case may be, at that time by the particular person or partnership if

(a) the following conditions are met:

(i) the particular property (and property, if any, for which it is, or is to be, substituted) was not, and will not be, at any time acquired, held, loaned or transferred by the particular person or partnership (or any person or partnership with whom the particular person or partnership does not at any time deal at arm’s length) in whole or in part for the purpose of permitting any change in the value of the property of a corporation (that is, at any time, a closely held corporation) to accrue directly or indirectly in any manner whatever to the value of property held by a non-resident trust,

(ii) the Minister is satisfied that the particular property (and property, if any, for which it is, or is to be, substituted) is described by subparagraph (i), and

(iii) the particular property is identified in prescribed form, containing prescribed information, filed, by or on behalf of the particular person or partnership, with the Minister on or before

(A) in the case of a person, the particular person’s filing-due date for the particular person’s taxation year that includes that time,

(B) in the case of a partnership, the day on or before which a return is required by section 229 of the Income Tax Regulations to be filed in respect of the fiscal period of the particular partnership or would be required to be so filed if that section applied to the partnership, or

(b) at that time

(i) the particular property is

(A) a share of the capital stock of a corporation,

(B) a fixed interest in a trust, or

(C) an interest, as a member of a partnership, under which, by operation of any law governing the arrangement in respect of the partnership, the liability of the member as a member of the partnership is limited,

(ii) there are at least 150 persons each of whom holds at that time property that at that time

(A) is identical to the particular property, and

(B) has a total fair market value of at least $500,

(iii) the total of all amounts each of which is the fair market value, at that time, of the particular property (or of identical property that is held, at that time, by the particular person or partnership or a person or partnership with whom the particular person or partnership does not deal at arm’s length) does not exceed 10% of the total of all amounts each of which is the fair market value, at that time, of the particular property or of identical property held by any person or partnership,

(iv) property that is identical to the particular property can normally be acquired by and sold by members of the public in the open market, and

(v) the particular property, or identical property, is listed on a designated stock exchange.

Anti-avoidance

(15) In applying this section,

(a) if it can reasonably be considered that one of the main reasons that a person or partnership

(i) is at any time a shareholder of a corporation is to cause the condition in paragraph (b) of the definition “closely held corporation” in subsection (1) to be satisfied in respect of the corporation, the condition is deemed not to have been satisfied at that time in respect of the corporation,

(ii) holds at any time an interest in a trust is to cause the condition in clause (h)(ii)(A) of the definition “exempt foreign trust” in subsection (1) to be satisfied in respect of the trust, the condition is deemed not to have been satisfied at that time in respect of the trust, and

(iii) holds at any time a property is to cause the condition described in subparagraph (14)(b)(ii) to be satisfied in respect of the property or an identical property held by any person, the condition is deemed not to have been satisfied at that time in respect of the property or the identical property;

(b) if at any time at or before a specified time in a trust’s taxation year, a resident contributor to the trust contributes to the trust property that is restricted property of the trust, or property for which restricted property of the trust is substituted, and the trust is at that specified time an exempt foreign trust by reason of paragraph (f) of the definition “exempt foreign trust” in subsection (1), the amount of the trust’s income for the taxation year from the restricted property, and the amount of any taxable capital gain from the disposition in the taxation year by the trust of the restricted property, shall be included in computing the income of the resident contributor for its taxation year in which that taxation year of the trust ends and not in computing the income of the trust for that taxation year of the trust; and

(c) if at a specified time in a trust’s taxation year it is an exempt foreign trust by reason of paragraph (h) of the definition “exempt foreign trust” in subsection (1), at a time immediately before a particular time in the immediately following taxation year (determined without reference to subsection (6)) there is a resident contributor to, or resident beneficiary under, the trust, at the time that is immediately before the particular time a beneficiary holds a fixed interest in the trust, and at the particular time the interest ceases to be a fixed interest in the trust,

(i) the trust is deemed, other than for purposes of subsection (6), not to be an exempt foreign trust at any time in the trust’s taxation year (referred to in this paragraph as its “assessment year”) that ends (for greater certainty as determined under paragraph (6)(a)) at the time that is immediately before the particular time,

(ii) the trust shall include in computing its income for its assessment year an amount equal to the amount determined by the formula

A – B – C

where

A is the amount by which the total of all amounts each of which is the fair market value of a property held by the trust at the end of its assessment year exceeds the total of all amounts each of which is the principal amount outstanding at the end of its assessment year of a liability of the trust,

B is the amount by which the total of all amounts each of which is the fair market value of a property held by the trust at the earliest time at which there is a resident contributor to, or resident beneficiary under, the trust and at which the trust is an exempt foreign trust (referred to in this paragraph as the “initial time”) exceeds the total of all amounts each of which is the principal amount outstanding at the initial time of a liability of the trust, and

C is the total of all amounts each of which is the amount of a contribution made to the trust in the period that begins at the initial time and ends at the end of its assessment year (in this paragraph referred to as the “interest gross-up period”), and

(iii) if the trust is liable for tax for its assessment year, then throughout the period that begins at the trust’s balance-due day for each taxation year that ends in the interest gross-up period and ends at the balance-due day for its assessment year, the trust is (in addition to any excess otherwise determined in respect of the trust under that subsection) deemed to have an excess for the purposes of subsection 161(1) equal to the amount determined by the formula

A/B × 42.92%

where

A is the amount determined under subparagraph (ii) in respect of the trust for the particular taxation year, and

B is the number of the trust’s taxation years that end in the interest gross-up period.

Attribution to electing contributors

(16) If at a specified time in respect of a trust for a taxation year of the trust (referred to in this subsection as the “trust’s year”), there is an electing contributor in respect of the trust, the following rules apply:

(a) the electing contributor is required to include in computing their income for their taxation year (referred to in this subsection as the “contributor’s year”) in which the trust’s year ends, the amount determined by the formula

A/B × (C – D)

where

A is the total of all amounts each of which is

(i) if at or before the specified time the electing contributor has made a contribution to the trust and is not a joint contributor in respect of the trust and the contribution, the amount of the contribution, or

(ii) if at or before the specified time the electing contributor has made a contribution to the trust and is a joint contributor in respect of the trust and the contribution, the amount obtained when the amount of the contribution is divided by the number of joint contributors in respect of the contribution,

B is the total of all amounts each of which is the amount that would be determined under A for each resident contributor, or connected contributor, to the trust at the specified time if all of those contributors were electing contributors in respect of the trust,

C is the trust’s income, computed without reference to paragraph (f), for the trust’s year, and

D is the amount deducted by the trust under section 111 in computing its taxable income for the trust’s year;

(b) subject to paragraph (c), the amount, if any, required by paragraph (a) to be included in the electing contributor’s income for the contributor’s year is deemed to be income from property from a source in Canada;

(c) for the purposes of this paragraph, paragraph (d) and section 126, an amount in respect of the trust’s income for the trust’s year from a source in a country other than Canada is deemed to be income of the electing contributor for the contributor’s year from that source if

(i) the amount is designated by the trust, in respect of the electing contributor, in the trust’s return of income under this Part for the trust’s year,

(ii) the amount may reasonably be considered (having regard to all the circumstances including the terms and conditions of the trust) to be part of the amount that because of paragraph (a) was included in computing the income of the electing contributor for the contributor’s year, and

(iii) the total of all amounts designated by the trust, under this paragraph or subsection 104(22) in respect of that source, in the trust’s return of income under this Part for the trust’s year is not greater than the trust’s income for the trust’s year from that source;

(g) if before the specified time the electing contributor made a contribution to the trust as part of a series of transactions in which another person made the same contribution, in applying paragraphs (a) to (f) in respect of the electing contributor and the other person, the other person is deemed not to be a joint contributor in respect of the contribution if it can reasonably be considered that one of the main purposes of the series was to obtain the benefit of any deduction in computing income, taxable income or tax payable under this Act or any balance of undeducted outlays, expenses or other amounts available to the other person or any exemption available to the other person from tax payable under this Act.

Liability for joint contribution

(17) If, at or before a specified time in a trust’s taxation year (referred to in this subsection as the “trust’s year”), there is an electing contributor in respect of the trust who is a joint contributor in respect of a contribution to the trust,

(a) each person who is a joint contributor in respect of the contribution

(i) has, in respect of the contribution, jointly and severally, or solidarily, the rights and obligations under Divisions I and J of each other person (referred to in this subsection as the “specified person”) who is, at or before the specified time, a joint contributor in respect of that contribution, for the specified person’s taxation year in which the trust’s year ends, and

(a) at the start of the year the taxpayer holds the participating interest;

(b) the total of all amounts each of which is a reported deduction for a year in respect of the participating interest exceeds the total of all amounts each of which is a reported inclusion for a year in respect of the participating interest; and

(c) the amount determined for B in applying the formula in subsection (7) in computing the taxpayer’s income for that year exceeds the amount, if any, that is the amount determined for A in so applying that formula.

(9) If this subsection applies to a taxpayer in respect of a participating interest for a taxation year, in computing the adjusted cost base to the taxpayer of the participating interest at any time after the start of the taxation year, there is to be deducted an amount equal to the excess determined in respect of the participating interest under paragraph (8)(b).

(10) Notwithstanding subsection 152(4) of the Act, the Minister of National Revenue may reassess tax, interest or penalties payable under Part I of the Act by the taxpayer, in respect of each of the taxpayer’s participating interests for each of the taxpayer’s taxation years that ends in the relevant period to give effect to the application of the Act as read in respect of each of those years without regard to this Part if

(a) subsection (6) does not apply to the taxpayer;

(b) the taxpayer has a reported inclusion or a reported deduction in respect of those participating interests for one or more of those years; and

Investments in non-resident commercial trusts

94.2 (1) Subsection (2) applies to a beneficiary under a trust, and to any particular person (other than an individual described in paragraph (a) of the definition “connected contributor” in subsection 94(1)) of which any such beneficiary is a controlled foreign affiliate, at any time if

(a) the trust is at that time an exempt foreign trust (other than a trust described in any of paragraphs (a) to (g) of the definition “exempt foreign trust” in subsection 94(1));

(b) either

(i) the total fair market value at that time of all fixed interests of a particular class in the trust held by the beneficiary, persons or partnerships not dealing at arm’s length with the beneficiary, or persons or partnerships that acquired their interests in the trust in exchange for consideration given to the trust by the beneficiary, is at least 10% of the total fair market value at that time of all fixed interests of the particular class, or

(ii) the beneficiary or the particular person has at or before that time contributed restricted property to the trust; and

(i) resident beneficiary,

(ii) mutual fund,

(iii) controlled foreign affiliate of the particular person, or

(iv) partnership of which a person described in any of subparagraphs (i) to (iii) is a member.

Deemed corporation

(2) If this subsection applies at any time to a beneficiary under, or a particular person in respect of, a trust, then for the purposes of applying this section, subsections 91(1) to (4), paragraph 94.1(1)(a) and sections 95 and 233.4 to the beneficiary under, and, if applicable, to the particular person in respect of, the trust

(a) the trust is deemed to be at that time a non-resident corporation

(i) controlled by each of the beneficiary and the particular person, and

(ii) having, for each particular class of fixed interests in the trust, a separate class of capital stock of 100 issued shares that have the same attributes as the interests of the particular class; and

(b) each beneficiary under the trust is deemed to hold at that time the number of shares of each separate class described in subparagraph (a)(ii) equal to the proportion of 100 that the fair market value at that time of that beneficiary’s fixed interests in the corresponding particular class of fixed interests in the trust is of the fair market value at that time of all fixed interests in the particular class.

Relief from double tax

(3) For the purposes of applying subsection 91(1) to the beneficiary, and, if applicable, to the particular person, to whom subsection (2) applies

(a) there may be deducted in computing the foreign accrual property income of the trust referred to in paragraph (2)(a) (in this subsection referred to as the “entity”) for a particular taxation year of the entity the amount that would, in the absence of this paragraph, be the portion of the entity’s foreign accrual property income that would reasonably be considered to have been if this Part were applicable to all beneficiaries of the entity, included under subsection 104(13) in computing the income of any beneficiary of the entity for the taxation year in which the particular taxation year of the entity ends; and

(b) subsection 5904(2) of the Income Tax Regulations is to be read without reference to its paragraph (a) in determining the distribution entitlement of all the shares of a class of the capital stock of the entity at the end of the particular taxation year.

Request for information

(4) If the Minister sends a written request, served personally or by registered mail, to a taxpayer requesting additional information for the purpose of enabling the Minister to determine the fair market value of interests in a trust for the purpose of determining the application of subsections (1) to (3) for a taxation year to the taxpayer, and information that may reasonably be considered to be sufficient to make the determination is not received by the Minister within 120 days (or within any longer period that is acceptable to the Minister) after the Minister sends the request, then in applying this section for the taxation year to the taxpayer the fair market value of those interests is deemed to be the fair market value as reasonably determined by the Minister based on the information received by the Minister within 120 days (or within any longer period that is acceptable to the Minister) after the Minister sends the request and any other information the Minister considers reasonable.

(2) Subsection (1) applies to taxation years that end after March 4, 2010, except that

(a) for taxation years that end before October 24, 2012, paragraph 94.2(1)(c) of the Act, as enacted by subsection (1), is to be read as follows:

(b) if subsection 94(1) of the Act, as enacted by section 7, applies to a trust for a taxation year that ends before March 5, 2010, then section 94.2 of the Act, as enacted by subsection (1), applies to each beneficiary under the trust, and to each person of which a beneficiary under the trust is a controlled foreign affiliate, for a taxation year of the beneficiary or person in which the earlier taxation year of the trust ends and, for those earlier taxation years, that section is to be read as follows:

(I) was the beneficiary referred to in paragraph (a), was related to that beneficiary or was the uncle, aunt, nephew or niece of that beneficiary,

(II) was resident in Canada at any time in the 18-month period before the end of that year or, in the case of a person who has ceased to exist, was resident in Canada at any time in the 18-month period before the person ceased to exist, and

(i) the trust shall, with respect to any beneficiary under the trust whose beneficial interest in the trust has a fair market value that is not less than 10% of the aggregate fair market value of all beneficial interests in the trust, be deemed to be a non-resident corporation that is controlled by the beneficiary,

(ii) the trust shall be deemed to be a non-resident corporation having a capital stock of a single class divided into 100 issued shares, and

is of

(d) in computing the foreign accrual property income of the trust for that taxation year, there may be deducted such portion of the amount that would, but for this paragraph, be the foreign accrual property income of the trust as may reasonably be considered as having been included in computing a beneficiary’s income under subsection 104(13) for a taxation year in which that taxation year of the trust ends.

(ii) all amounts each of which is determined by the formula

A × B

where

A is an amount (other than an amount described in subparagraph (i)) that

(A) is paid or credited (having the meaning assigned by Part XIII) in the year to the trust,

(B) would, if this Act were read without reference to subparagraph 94(3)(a)(viii), paragraph 212(2)(b) and sections 216 and 217, be an amount as a consequence of the payment or crediting of which the trust would have been liable to tax under Part XIII, and

(C) becomes payable in the year by the trust to a non-resident beneficiary under the trust in respect of an interest of the non-resident as a beneficiary under the trust, and

B is

(A) 0.35, if the trust can establish to the satisfaction of the Minister that the non-resident beneficiary to whom the amount described in the description of A is payable is resident in a country with which Canada has a tax treaty under which the income tax that Canada may impose on the beneficiary in respect of the amount is limited, and

(B) 0.6, in any other case.

(ii) if any foreign affiliate of a corporation resident in Canada has issued shares of more than one class of its capital stock, the amount that would be paid as a dividend on the shares of any class is the portion of its exempt surplus or exempt deficit and its taxable surplus (including underlying foreign tax applicable) or taxable deficit (and thus net surplus) that, in the circumstances, would reasonably be expected to have been paid on all the shares of that class; and

(b) the specified adjustment factor in respect of a disposition is the percentage determined by the formula

A/B

where

A is

(i) the corporation, or

(ii) another foreign affiliate of the corporation, in the case where the percentage that would, if the deficit affiliate were resident in Canada, be the deficit affiliate’s surplus entitlement percentage in respect of the acquired affiliate immediately after the acquisition time is less than the percentage that would, if the deficit affiliate were so resident, be its surplus entitlement percent-age in respect of the acquired affiliate at the particular time.

(7.2) If this subsection applies, there is to be included,

(a) at the time (referred to in this subsection and subsections (7.6) and (7.7) and 5908(11) and (12) as the “adjustment time”) that is immediately before the time that is immediately before the time that is immediately before the acquisition time, under subparagraph (v) of the description of B in the definition “exempt surplus” in subsection 5907(1) in computing an acquired affiliate’s exempt surplus or exempt deficit in respect of the corporation, the amount, if any, equal to the lesser of

5908. (1) For the purposes of this subsection, subsections (2) to (7), paragraph 5902(2)(b) and section 5905, if at any time shares of a class of the capital stock of a foreign affiliate of a corporation resident in Canada are, based on the assumptions contained in paragraph 96(1)(c) of the Act, owned by a partnership, or are deemed under this subsection to be owned by a partnership, each member of the partnership is deemed to own at that time the number of shares of that class that is determined by the formula

A × B/C

where

A is the number of shares of that class that are so owned or so deemed owned by the partnership;

B is the fair market value of the member’s interest in the partnership at that time; and

C is the fair market value of all members’ interests in the partnership at that time.

(2) For the purposes of subsections (4) and 5905(1), (5) and (7.1), if a person is deemed by subsection (1) to own at a particular time a different number of shares of a class of the capital stock of a foreign affiliate of a corporation resident in Canada (which shares so deemed owned are referred to in this subsection as “affiliate shares”) than the person was deemed by that subsection to have owned immediately before the particular time, the number of affiliate shares equal to that difference is deemed to be

(a) disposed of, at the particular time, by the person, when that person is deemed to own fewer affiliate shares at the particular time than immediately before it; and

(b) acquired by, at the particular time, the person, when that person is deemed to own more affiliate shares at the particular time than immediately before it.

(3) For the purposes of subsection (2),

(a) if a partnership of which a person is a member at any time does not own, and (but for this subsection) is not deemed by subsection (1) to own, any shares of a class of the capital stock of the foreign affiliate at that time, subsection (1) is deemed to have applied in respect of the person and to have deemed the person to own, because of subsection (1) in respect of the partnership, no shares of that class at that time; and

(b) if a corporation resident in Canada or a foreign affiliate of such a corporation disposes of or acquires its entire interest in a partnership that, based on the assumptions contained in paragraph 96(1)(c) of the Act, owns shares of a class of the capital stock of a non-resident corporation, the corporation resident in Canada or the foreign affiliate, as the case may be, is deemed at the time that is immediately after the disposition or immediately before the acquisition, as the case may be, to own, because of subsection (1) in respect of the partnership, no shares of that class.

(4) For the purposes of subsection 5905(5), if at any time a corporation resident in Canada (referred to in this subsection as the “disposing corporation”) disposes of shares of a class of the capital stock of a foreign affiliate of the disposing corporation and, as a consequence of the same transaction or event (other than one to which neither paragraph (2)(a) nor paragraph (2)(b) applies) that caused the disposition, a taxable Canadian corporation with which the disposing corporation is not, at that time, dealing at arm’s length acquires shares of that class, the disposing corporation is, at that time, deemed to have disposed of, to the taxable Canadian corporation, the number of the shares of that class that is determined by the formula

A × B

where

A is the number of shares of that class disposed of by the disposing corporation; and

B is

(a) if the taxable Canadian corporation acquires, because of paragraph (2)(b), shares of that class, the fraction determined by the formula

C/D

where

C is the number of shares of that class that is deemed by that paragraph to be acquired by the taxable Canadian corporation as a result of the transaction or event, and

D is the total of all amounts each of which is the number of shares of that class that is deemed by that paragraph to be acquired by a person as a result of the transaction or event, and

(b) in any other case, one.

(5) For the purposes of subsection 5905(5.1), if a predecessor corporation described in that subsection is, at the time that is immediately before the amalgamation described in that subsection, a member of a particular partnership that, based on the assumptions contained in paragraph 96(1)(c) of the Act, owns, at that time, shares of the capital stock of a foreign affiliate of the predecessor corporation and the predecessor corporation’s interest in the partic- ular partnership, or in another partnership that is a member of the particular partnership, becomes, upon the amalgamation, property of the new corporation described in that subsection, the shares of the capital stock of the affiliate that are deemed under subsection (1) to be owned by the predecessor corporation at that time are deemed to become property of the new corporation upon the amalgamation.

(6) In applying subsection 5905(5.2), if the corporation is a member of a partnership that, based on the assumptions contained in paragraph 96(1)(c) of the Act, owns shares (referred to individually in paragraph (a) as a “relevant share”) of the affiliate’s capital stock at the particular time,

(a) for the purposes of the description of B in subsection 5905(5.2), the corporation’s cost amount of each relevant share at the partic- ular time is to be determined by the formula

P × Q/R

where

P is the partnership’s cost amount of that relevant share at the particular time,

Q is the number of shares of the capital stock of the affiliate that are deemed by subsection (1), in respect of the partnership, to be owned by the corporation at the particular time, and

R is the total number of relevant shares at the particular time; and

(b) for the purposes of paragraph (b) of the description of C in subsection 5905(5.2), the amount determined under this paragraph is the total of all amounts each of which is the amount that would be the corporation’s portion of a gain that would be deemed under subsection 92(5) of the Act to be a gain of the member of the partnership from the disposition of a share of the capital stock of the affiliate by the partnership if that share were disposed of immediately before the particular time.

(7) For the purposes of paragraph 5905(5.4)(b), the amount determined by this subsection is the amount determined by the following formula for shares of the capital stock of a foreign affiliate of the subsidiary that were deemed by subsection (1), in respect of the partnership, to be owned by the subsidiary at the time at which the parent last acquired control of the subsidiary:

A × B

where

A is the tax-free surplus balance of the affiliate, in respect of the subsidiary, at that time; and

B is the percentage that would be the subsidiary’s surplus entitlement percentage in respect of the affiliate at that time if the only shares of that capital stock that were owned at that time by the subsidiary were the shares of that capital stock that were deemed by subsection (1), in respect of the partnership, to be owned by the subsidiary at the time at which the parent last acquired control of the subsidiary.

(8) If a particular corporation resident in Canada or a particular foreign affiliate of a particular corporation resident in Canada is a member of a particular partnership, the partic- ular partnership owns (based on the assumptions contained in paragraph 96(1)(c) of the Act) shares of a class of the capital stock of a foreign affiliate of the particular corporation and the particular partnership disposes of any of those shares,

(a) any reference in this Part (other than subsections 5902(5) and (6)) to subsection 93(1) of the Act is deemed to include a reference to subsection 93(1.2) of the Act;

(b) an election under subsection 93(1.2) of the Act by the particular corporation is to be made by filing the prescribed form with the Minister on or before

(i) where the particular corporation is the disposing corporation referred to in that subsection, the particular corporation’s filing-due date for its taxation year that includes the last day of the particular partnership’s fiscal period in which the disposition was made, and

(ii) where the particular affiliate is the disposing corporation referred to in that subsection, the particular corporation’s filing-due date for its taxation year that includes the last day of the particular affiliate’s taxation year that includes the last day of the disposing partnership’s fiscal period in which the disposition was made; and

(i) the taxable capital gain, if any, of the particular affiliate otherwise determined in respect of the disposition, and

(ii) the amount determined by the formula

A × B × C/D

where

A is the fraction referred to in paragraph 38(a) of the Act that applies to the particular affiliate’s taxation year that includes the last day of the particular partnership’s fiscal period that includes the time of the disposition,

B is the amount that could reasonably be expected to have been received in respect of all the shares of that class if the second foreign affiliate referred to in subsection 93(1.2) of the Act had, immediately before that time, paid dividends, on all shares of its capital stock, the total of which was equal to the amount determined under subparagraph 5902(1)(a)(i) to be its net surplus in respect of the particular corporation,

C is the number of shares of that class that is determined under subsection 93(1.3) of the Act, and

D is the total number of issued shares of that class immediately before that time.

(9) For the purposes of this Part, except to the extent that the context otherwise requires, if a person or partnership is (or is deemed by this subsection to be) a member of a particular partnership that is a member of another partnership, the person or partnership is deemed to be a member of the other partnership.

(10) For the purposes of paragraph 95(2)(j) of the Act, the adjusted cost base to a foreign affiliate of a taxpayer of an interest in a partnership at any time is prescribed to be the cost to the affiliate of the interest as otherwise determined at that time, and for those purposes

(a) there shall be added to that cost such of the following amounts as are applicable:

(i) any amount included in the affiliate’s earnings for a taxation year ending after 1971 and before that time that may reasonably be considered to relate to profits of the partnership,

(ii) the affiliate’s incomes as described by the description of A in the definition “foreign accrual property income” in subsection 95(1) of the Act for a taxation year ending after 1971 and before that time that can reasonably be considered to relate to profits of the partnership,

(iii) any amount included in computing the exempt earnings or taxable earnings, as the case may be, of the affiliate for a taxation year ending after 1971 and before that time that may reasonably be considered to relate to a capital gain of the partnership,

(iv) where the affiliate has, at any time before that time and in a taxation year ending after 1971, made a contribution of capital to the partnership otherwise than by way of a loan, such part of the amount of the contribution as cannot reasonably be regarded as a gift made to or for the benefit of any other member of the partnership who was related to the affiliate,

(v) such portion of any income or profits tax refunded before that time by the government of a country to the partnership as may reasonably be regarded as tax refunded in respect of an amount described in any of subparagraphs (b)(i) to (iii), and

(vi) the amount, if any, determined under paragraph (11)(b);

(b) there shall be deducted from that cost such of the following amounts as are applicable:

(i) any amount included in the affiliate’s loss for a taxation year ending after 1971 that may reasonably be considered to relate to a loss of the partnership,

(ii) the affiliate’s losses as described by the description of D in the definition “foreign accrual property income” in subsection 95(1) of the Act for a taxation year ending after 1971 and before that time that can reasonably be considered to relate to the losses of the partnership,

(iii) any amount included in computing the exempt loss or taxable loss, as the case may be, of the affiliate for a taxation year ending after 1971 and before that time that may reasonably be considered to relate to a capital loss of the partnership,

(iv) any amount received by the affiliate before that time and in a taxation year ending after 1971 as, on account or in lieu of payment of, or in satisfaction of, a distribution of the affiliate’s share of the partnership profits or partnership capital, and

(v) such portion of any income or profits tax paid before that time to the government of a country by the partnership as may reasonably be regarded as tax paid in respect of an amount described in any of subparagraphs (a)(i) to (iii); and

(c) for greater certainty, where any interest of a foreign affiliate in a partnership was reacquired by the affiliate after having been previously disposed of, no adjustment that was required to be made under this subsection before such reacquisition shall be made under this subsection to the cost to the affiliate of the interest as reacquired property of the affiliate.

(11) If at any time a partnership owns, based on the assumptions contained in paragraph 96(1)(c) of the Act, a share of the capital stock of a particular foreign affiliate of a corporation resident in Canada and one or more members of the partnership is at that time a direct holder referred to in paragraph 5905(7.6)(a) or a subordinate affiliate referred to in paragraph 5905(7.6)(b), the following rules apply:

(a) for the purposes of paragraph 92(1.1)(b) of the Act, there is to be added, in computing at or after that time the partnership’s adjusted cost base of the share, the total of all amounts each of which is the amount determined, in respect of an acquired affiliate referred to in subsection 5905(7.6), by the formula

A × B

where

A is the amount, if any, determined under paragraph 5905(7.2)(a) in respect of the acquired affiliate, and

B is the percentage that would, if the partnership were a corporation resident in Canada, be the partnership’s surplus entitlement percentage in respect of the acquired affiliate, at the adjustment time, if the partnership owned only the share;

(b) for the purposes of subparagraph (10)(a)(vi), the amount determined under this paragraph, in respect of the interest in the partnership of the direct holder or the subordinate affiliate, is the amount determined by the formula

B is the fair market value, at the adjustment time, of the interest in the partnership of the direct holder or the subordinate affiliate, as the case may be, and

C is the fair market value, at the adjustment time, of all members’ interests in the partnership; and

(c) no amount is to be added under subsection 5905(7.6) to the direct holder’s or the subordinate affiliate’s adjusted cost base of the share.

(12) For the purposes of paragraph 5905(7.7)(b), the amount determined under this subsection is the amount determined by the formula

A × B/C

where

A is the adjustment amount;

B is the fair market value, at the adjustment time, of the interest in the partnership that is referred to in paragraph 92(1.1)(b) of the Act of the particular foreign affiliate that is referred to in paragraph 93(3)(c) of the Act; and

C is the fair market value, at the adjustment time, of all members’ interests in the partnership.

(d) the fair market value of the member’s interest in the partnership at that time

is of

(2) For the purposes of this section and section 5905, if the number of shares of a class of the capital stock of a foreign affiliate of a corporation resident in Canada deemed by subsection 93.1(1) of the Act to be owned by a person at a particular time is different from the number so deemed immediately before the particular time,

(a) where the number of shares of that class deemed to be owned by the person has decreased, the person is deemed to have disposed of, at the particular time, the number of shares of that class equal to the amount of the decrease;

(b) where the number of shares of that class deemed to be owned by the person has increased, the person is deemed to have acquired, at the particular time, the number of shares of that class equal to the amount of the increase;

A/B

where

A is the total of all amounts each of which is the net distribution amount in respect of a distribution of distributed property made, at any time, in respect of the class, and

(ii) the vendor is resident in Canada at the time of the grant of the restrictive covenant and the disposition referred to in clause (i)(B), and

(iii) the vendor does not, at any time after the grant of the restrictive covenant and whether directly or indirectly in any manner whatever, have an interest, or for civil law a right, in the family corporation or in the eligible corporation of the eligible individual, as the case may be;

(d) no proceeds are received or receivable by the vendor for granting the restrictive covenant;

(e) subsection 84(3) does not apply in respect of the disposition of a share of the target corporation or family corporation, as the case may be;

(f) the restrictive covenant can reasonably be regarded to have been granted to maintain or preserve the fair market value of any of

Application of subsection (7) and section 69 — special rules

(8) For the purpose

(a) of applying subsection (7), clause (7)(b)(ii)(A) and subclause (7)(c)(i)(B)(I) apply to a grant of a restrictive covenant only if

(i) the consideration that can reasonably be regarded as being in part the consideration for the restrictive covenant is received or receivable by the vendor or the vendor’s eligible corporation, as the case may be, as consideration for the disposition of the property, and

(ii) if all or a part of the consideration can reasonably be regarded as being for a goodwill amount, subsection (2), paragraph (3)(b), subparagraph (7)(b)(i) or clause (7)(c)(i)(A) applies to that consideration; and

(b) of determining if the conditions described in paragraph (7)(c) have been met, and for the purpose of applying section 69, in respect of a restrictive covenant granted by a vendor, the fair market value of a property is the amount that can reasonably be regarded as being the fair market value of the property if the restrictive covenant were part of the property.

Anti-avoidance rule — non-application of paragraph (3)(c)

(9) Paragraph (3)(c) does not apply to an amount that would, if this Act were read without reference to subsections (2) to (14), be included in computing a taxpayer’s income from a source that is an office or employment or a business or property under paragraph 3(a).

Anti-avoidance — non-application of subsection (7)

(10) Subsection (7) does not apply in respect of a taxpayer’s grant of a restrictive covenant if one of the results of not applying section 68 to the consideration received or receivable in respect of the taxpayer’s grant of the restrictive covenant would be that paragraph 3(a) would not apply to consideration that would, if this Act were read without reference to subsections (2) to (14), be included in computing a taxpayer’s income from a source that is an office or employment or a business or property.

Clarification if subsection (2) applies — where another person receives the amount

(11) For greater certainty, if subsection (2) applies to include in computing a taxpayer’s income an amount received or receivable by another taxpayer, that amount is not to be included in computing the income of that other taxpayer.

Clarification if subsection (5) applies

(12) For greater certainty, if subsection (5) applies in respect of a restrictive covenant,

(a) the amount referred to in paragraph (6)(f) is to be added in computing the amount received or receivable by the vendors as consideration for the disposition of the interest or right referred to in paragraph (6)(b); and

(b) the amount that can reasonably be regarded as being in part consideration received or receivable for a restrictive covenant to which clause (7)(b)(ii)(B) or subclause (7)(c)(i)(B)(II) applies is to be added in computing the consideration that is received or receivable by each taxpayer who disposes of shares of the target corporation, or shares of the family corporation, as the case may be, to the extent of the portion of the consideration that is received or receivable by that taxpayer.

Filing of prescribed form

(13) For the purpose of paragraphs (3)(b) and (c) and subsection (7), an election in prescribed form filed under any of those provisions is to include a copy of the restrictive covenant and be filed

Limitation of amount of expenditure

(2) For the purposes of this Act, if in a taxation year of a taxpayer an expenditure of the taxpayer occurs, the amount of the expenditure at any time is the lesser of

(a) the amount of the expenditure at the time calculated under this Act without reference to this section, and

(b) the least amount of the expenditure calculated by reducing the amount of the expenditure determined under paragraph (a) by the amount that is the amount, if any, by which

(i) the total of all amounts each of which is a contingent amount of the taxpayer in the year in respect of the expenditure

exceeds

(ii) the total of all amounts each of which is

(A) an amount paid by the taxpayer to obtain a right to reduce an amount in respect of the expenditure, or

(B) a limited-recourse amount for the purposes of paragraph 143.2(6)(b) that reduces the expenditure under subsection 143.2(6) to the extent that the amount is also a contingent amount described in subparagraph (i) in respect of the expenditure.

Payment of contingent amount

(3) For the purposes of this Act, if in a particular taxation year, a taxpayer pays all or a portion of a contingent amount referred to in paragraph (2)(b) that reduces the amount of the taxpayer’s expenditure referred to in paragraph (2)(a), the portion of the contingent amount paid by the taxpayer in the particular year for the purpose of earning income, and to that extent only, is deemed

(a) to have been incurred by the taxpayer in the particular year;

(b) to have been incurred for the same purpose and to have the same character as the expenditure so reduced; and

Subsequent years

(4) Subject to subsection (6), if at any time in a taxation year that is after a taxation year in which an expenditure of the taxpayer occurred, the taxpayer, or another taxpayer not dealing at arm’s length with the taxpayer, has a right to reduce an amount in respect of the expenditure (in this subsection and subsection (5) referred to as the “prior expenditure”) that would, if the taxpayer or the other taxpayer had had the right to reduce in a particular taxation year that ended before the time, have resulted in subsection (2) applying in the particular taxation year to reduce or eliminate the amount of the prior expenditure, the taxpayer’s subsequent contingent amount in respect of the prior expenditure, as determined under subsection (5), is deemed, to the extent subsection (2) and this subsection have not previously applied in respect of the expenditure,

(a) to be an amount received by the taxpayer at the time in the course of earning income from a business or property from a person described in subparagraph 12(1)(x)(i); and

Subsequent contingent amount

(5) For the purposes of subsection (4), a taxpayer’s subsequent contingent amount in respect of a prior expenditure of the taxpayer is the amount, if any, by which

exceeds

(b) the amount, if any, paid to obtain the right to reduce the particular amount.

Anti-avoidance

(6) If a taxpayer, or another taxpayer that does not deal at arm’s length with the taxpayer, has a right to reduce an amount in respect of an expenditure of the taxpayer in a taxation year that is after the taxation year in which the expenditure otherwise occurred, determined without reference to subsection (3), the taxpayer is deemed to have the right to reduce in the taxation year in which that expenditure otherwise occurred if it is reasonable to conclude having regard to all the circumstances that one of the purposes for having the right to reduce after the end of the year in which the expenditure otherwise occurred was to avoid the application of subsection (2) to the amount of the expenditure.

Due diligence

(11) A person required to file an information return in respect of a reportable transaction is not liable for a penalty under subsection (8) if the person has exercised the degree of care, diligence and skill to prevent the failure to file that a reasonably prudent person would have exercised in comparable circumstances.

Reporting not an admission

(12) The filing of an information return under this section by a person in respect of a reportable transaction is not an admission by the person that

(a) section 245 applies in respect of any transaction; or

(b) any transaction is part of a series of transactions.

Application of sections 231 to 231.3

(13) Without restricting the generality of sections 231 to 231.3, even if a return of income has not been filed by a taxpayer under section 150 for the taxation year of the taxpayer in which a tax benefit results, or would result but for section 245, from a reportable transaction, sections 231 to 231.3 apply, with such modifications as the circumstances require, for the purpose of permitting the Minister to verify or ascertain any information in respect of that transaction.

A – B

where

A is the amount of the penalty imposed on the person under subsection (8), determined without reference to this subsection; and

B is

(a) if the reportable transaction is the acquisition of a tax shelter, the amount of the penalty, if any, that applies on the person under subsection 237.1(7.4) in respect of the tax shelter,

(b) if the reportable transaction is the issuance of a flow-through share, the amount of the penalty, if any, that applies on the person under subsection 66(12.74) in respect of the issuance of the flow-through share, and

Anti-avoidance

(16) Subsection (14) does not apply to a reportable transaction if it is reasonable, having regard to all of the circumstances, to conclude that one of the main reasons for the acquisition of a tax shelter, or the issuance of a flow-through share, is to avoid the application of this section.

Solicitor-client privilege

(17) For greater certainty, for the purpose of this section, a lawyer who is an advisor in respect of a reportable transaction is not required to disclose in an information return in respect of the transaction any information in respect of which the lawyer, on reasonable grounds, believes that a client of the lawyer has solicitor-client privilege.

(33) The cost to a taxpayer of a property, acquired by the taxpayer in circumstances where subsection (32) applies to include the value of the property in computing the amount of the advantage in respect of a gift or monetary contribution, is equal to the fair market value of the property at the time the gift or monetary contribution is made.

Repayment of limited-recourse debt

(34) If at any time in a taxation year a taxpayer has paid an amount (in this subsection referred to as the “repaid amount”) on account of the principal amount of an indebtedness which was, before that time, an unpaid principal amount that was a limited-recourse debt referred to in subsection 143.2(6.1) (in this subsection referred to as the “former limited-recourse debt”) in respect of a gift or monetary contribution (in this subsection referred to as the “original gift” or “original monetary contribution”, respectively, as the case may be) of the taxpayer (otherwise than by way of an assignment or transfer of a guarantee, security or similar indemnity or covenant, or by way of a payment in respect of which any taxpayer referred to in subsection 143.2(6.1) has incurred an indebtedness that would be a limited-recourse debt referred to in that subsection if that indebtedness were in respect of a gift or monetary contribution made at the time that that indebtedness was incurred), the following rules apply:

(a) if the former limited-recourse debt is in respect of the original gift, for the purposes of sections 110.1 and 118.1, the taxpayer is deemed to have made in the taxation year a gift to a qualified donee, the eligible amount of which deemed gift is the amount, if any, by which

(i) the amount that would have been the eligible amount of the original gift, if the total of all such repaid amounts paid at or before that time were paid immediately before the original gift was made,

exceeds

(ii) the total of

(A) the eligible amount of the original gift, and

(B) the eligible amount of all other gifts deemed by this paragraph to have been made before that time in respect of the original gift; and

(b) if the former limited-recourse debt is in respect of the original monetary contribution, for the purposes of subsection 127(3), the taxpayer is deemed to have made in the taxation year a monetary contribution referred to in that subsection, the eligible amount of which is the amount, if any, by which

(i) the amount that would have been the eligible amount of the original monetary contribution, if the total of all such repaid amounts paid at or before that time were paid immediately before the original monetary contribution was made,

exceeds

(ii) the total of

(A) the eligible amount of the original monetary contribution, and

(B) the eligible amount of all other monetary contributions deemed by this paragraph to have been made before that time in respect of the original monetary contribution.

Deemed fair market value

(35) For the purposes of subsection (31), paragraph 69(1)(b) and subsections 110.1(2.1) and (3) and 118.1(5.4) and (6), the fair market value of a property that is the subject of a gift made by a taxpayer to a qualified donee is deemed to be the lesser of the fair market value of the property otherwise determined and the cost or, in the case of capital property, the adjusted cost base or, in the case of a life insurance policy in respect of which the taxpayer is a policyholder, the adjusted cost basis (as defined in subsection 148(9)), of the property to the taxpayer immediately before the gift is made if

(a) the taxpayer acquired the property under a gifting arrangement that is a tax shelter as defined in subsection 237.1(1); or

(b) except where the gift is made as a consequence of the taxpayer’s death,

(i) the taxpayer acquired the property less than three years before the day that the gift is made, or

(ii) the taxpayer acquired the property less than 10 years before the day that the gift is made and it is reasonable to conclude that, at the time the taxpayer acquired the property, one of the main reasons for the acquisition was to make a gift of the property to a qualified donee.

Non-arm’s length transaction

(36) If a taxpayer acquired a property, otherwise than by reason of the death of an individual, that is the subject of a gift to which subsection (35) applies because of subparagraph (35)(b)(i) or (ii) and the property was, at any time within the 3-year or 10-year period, respectively, that ends when the gift was made, acquired by a person or partnership with whom the taxpayer does not deal at arm’s length, for the purpose of applying subsection (35) to the taxpayer, the cost, or in the case of capital property, the adjusted cost base, of the property to the taxpayer immediately before the gift is made is deemed to be equal to the lowest amount that is the cost, or in the case of capital property, the adjusted cost base, to the taxpayer or any of those persons or partnerships immediately before the property was disposed of by that person or partnership.

Non-application of subsection (35)

(37) Subsection (35) does not apply to a gift

(a) of inventory;

(b) of real property or an immovable situated in Canada;

(d) of property to which paragraph 38(a.1) or (a.2) applies;

(e) of a share of the capital stock of a corporation if

(i) the share was issued by the corporation to the donor,

(ii) immediately before the gift, the corporation was controlled by the donor, a person related to the donor or a group of persons each of whom is related to the donor, and

(iii) subsection (35) would not have applied in respect of the consideration for which the share was issued had that consideration been donated by the donor to the qualified donee when the share was so donated;

(f) by a corporation of property if

(i) the property was acquired by the corporation in circumstances to which subsection 85(1) or (2) applied,

(ii) immediately before the gift, the shareholder from whom the corporation acquired the property controlled the corporation or was related to a person or each member of a group of persons that controlled the corporation, and

(iii) subsection (35) would not have applied in respect of the property had the property not been transferred to the corporation and had the shareholder made the gift to the qualified donee when the corporation so made the gift; or

(g) of a property that was acquired in circumstances where subsection 70(6) or (9) or 73(1), (3) or (4) applied, unless subsection (36) would have applied if this subsection were read without reference to this paragraph.

Artificial transactions

(38) The eligible amount of a particular gift of property by a taxpayer is nil if it can reasonably be concluded that the particular gift relates to a transaction or series of transactions

(a) one of the purposes of which is to avoid the application of subsection (35) to a gift of any property; or

(b) that would, if this Act were read without reference to this paragraph, result in a tax benefit to which subsection 245(2) applies.

Substantive gift

(39) If a taxpayer disposes of a property (in this subsection referred to as the “substantive gift”) that is a capital property or an eligible capital property of the taxpayer, to a recipient that is a registered party, a registered association or a candidate, as those terms are defined in the Canada Elections Act, or that is a qualified donee, subsection (35) would have applied in respect of the substantive gift if it had been the subject of a gift by the taxpayer to a qualified donee, and all or a part of the proceeds of disposition of the substantive gift are (or are substituted, directly or indirectly in any manner whatever, for) property that is the subject of a gift or monetary contribution by the taxpayer to the recipient or any person dealing not at arm’s length with the recipient, the following rules apply:

(a) for the purpose of subsection (31), the fair market value of the property that is the subject of the gift or monetary contribution made by the taxpayer is deemed to be that proportion of the lesser of the fair market value of the substantive gift and the cost, or if the substantive gift is capital property of the taxpayer, the adjusted cost base, of the substantive gift to the taxpayer immediately before the disposition to the recipient, that the fair market value otherwise determined of the property that is the subject of the gift or monetary contribution is of the proceeds of disposition of the substantive gift;

(b) if the substantive gift is capital property of the taxpayer, for the purpose of the definitions “proceeds of disposition” of property in subsection 13(21) and section 54, the sale price of the substantive gift is to be reduced by the amount by which the fair market value of the property that is the subject of the gift (determined without reference to this section) exceeds the fair market value determined under paragraph (a); and

(c) if the substantive gift is eligible capital property of the taxpayer, the amount determined under paragraph (a) in the description of E in the definition “cumulative eligible capital” in subsection 14(5) in respect of the substantive gift is to be reduced by the amount by which the fair market value of the property that is the subject of the gift (determined without reference to this section) exceeds the fair market value determined under paragraph (a).

Inter-charity gifts

(40) Subsection (30) does not apply in respect of a gift received by a qualified donee from a registered charity.

Information not provided

(41) Notwithstanding subsection (31), the eligible amount of a gift or monetary contribution made by a taxpayer is nil if the taxpayer does not — before a receipt referred to in subsection 110.1(2), 118.1(2) or 127(3), as the case may be, is issued in respect of the gift or monetary contribution — inform the qualified donee or the recipient, as the case may be, of any circumstances in respect of which subsection (31), (35), (36), (38) or (39) requires that the eligible amount of the gift or monetary contribution be less than the fair market value, determined without reference to subsections (35), 110.1(3) and 118.1(6), of the property that is the subject of the gift or monetary contribution.
