A/B
where
A      is
(i) if the elected dividend is received by the corporation, 100 per cent, and

(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

(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
(c) the prescribed amount for the purposes of subparagraph 93(1.2)(a)(ii) of the Act is the lesser of
(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
A × B/C
where
A      is the total of all amounts each of which is the amount, if any, determined under paragraph (a) in respect of a share of the capital stock of the particular affiliate,
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.

if at any time shares of a class of the capital stock of a corporation are owned by a partnership or are deemed under this subsection to be owned by a partnership, those shares are deemed to be owned at that time by each member of the partnership in a proportion equal to the proportion of all such shares that
(d) the fair market value of the member’s interest in the partnership at that time
is of
(e) the fair market value of all members’ interests in the partnership at that time.
(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;
(c) a person (referred to in this paragraph as the “seller”) that is deemed by paragraph (a) to have disposed of, at a particular time, shares of a class of the foreign affiliate’s capital stock is deemed to have disposed of those shares to the persons (referred to in this paragraph as the “acquirers”) deemed in paragraph (b) to have acquired shares of that class at that time and the number of shares of that class deemed to have been acquired at that time by a particular acquirer from the seller shall be determined by the formula

A × B/C
where
A      is the number of shares of that class disposed of by the seller,
B      is the number of shares of that class acquired by the particular acquirer at that time, and
C      is the number of shares of that class disposed of by all sellers at that time.

48. (1) The Regulations are amended by adding the following in numerical order:
5910. (1) If a foreign affiliate of a corporation resident in Canada carries on in a particular taxation year an active business that is a foreign oil and gas business in a taxing country, the affiliate is deemed for the purposes of this Part to have paid for the particular year, as an income or profits tax to the government of the taxing country in respect of its earnings from the business for the particular year, an amount equal to the lesser of
(a) the amount, if any, determined by the formula
(A × B) – C
where
A      is the percentage determined under subsection (2) for the particular year,
B      is the amount determined under subsection (3) in respect of the business for the particular year, and
C      is the total of all amounts each of which is an amount that would, but for this subsection, be an income or profits tax paid to the government of the taxing country by the affiliate for the particular year in respect of its earnings from the business for the particular year; and
(b) the affiliate’s production tax amount for the business in the taxing country for the particular year.
(2) The percentage determined under this subsection for the particular year is the percentage determined by the formula
P – Q
where
P      is the percentage set out in paragraph 123(1)(a) of the Act for the corporation’s taxation year that includes the last day of the particular year; and
Q      is the corporation’s general rate reduction percentage (within the meaning assigned by subsection 123.4(1) of the Act) for that taxation year of the corporation.
(3) The amount determined under this subsection in respect of the business for the particular year is
(a) if the affiliate’s earnings from the business for the particular year are required to be determined under subparagraph (a)(iii) of the definition “earnings” in subsection 5907(1), the amount that would be determined to be the affiliate’s earnings for the particular year from the business if the affiliate
(i) had, in computing its income from the business for each taxation year (referred to in this subparagraph as an “earnings year”) that is the particular year or is any preceding taxation year that begins after December 18, 2009,
(A) claimed all deductions that it could have claimed under the Act, up to the maximum amount deductible in computing the income from the business for that earnings year, and
(B) made all claims and elections and taken all steps under applicable provisions of the Act, or of enactments implementing amendments to the Act or its regulations, to maximize the amount of any deduction referred to clause (A), and
(ii) had, in computing its income from the business for any preceding taxation year that began before December 19, 2009, claimed all deductions, if any, that it actually claimed under the Act, up to the maximum amount deductible, and made all claims and elections, if any, and taken all steps, if any, under applicable provisions of the Act, or of enactments implementing amendments to the Act or its regulations, that it actually made; and
(b) in any other case, the affiliate’s earnings from the business for the particular year.
(4) In this section, “foreign oil and gas business”, “production tax amount” and “taxing country” have the meanings assigned by subsection 126(7) of the Act.
(2) Subsection (1) applies in respect of production tax amounts that become receiv- able by the government of a taxing country in taxation years of a taxpayer’s foreign affiliate that begin after the date (referred to in this subsection as the “application date”) that is the earlier of December 31, 2002 and the designated date. The designated date is the later of
(a) December 31, 1994; and
(b) any date that the taxpayer designates in writing for the purpose of this subsection, if the designation is filed with the Minister of National Revenue on or before the taxpayer’s filing-due date for the taxpayer’s taxation year that includes the day on which this Act receives royal assent.
However, in their application to taxation years of the foreign affiliate that begin after the application date and on or before December 18, 2009, subsections 5910(2) and (3) of the Regulations, as enacted by subsection (1), are to be read as follows:
(2) The percentage determined under this subsection for the particular year is 40 per cent.
(3) The amount determined under this subsection in respect of the business for the particular year is the amount that would, if the definition “earnings” in subsection 5907(1) were read without reference to its subparagraphs (a)(i) and (ii), be the foreign affiliate’s earnings from the business in the taxing country for the particular year.
