In March 2025, the federal government cancelled its proposed increase in the capital gains inclusion rate from one-half to two-thirds. The general inclusion rate therefore remained 50<\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">%.\u00b9<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">The increase in the Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption for qualifying small business corporation shares and qualified farming or fishing property was retained, with indexation resuming in 2026. The amount and eligibility conditions should be confirmed against current guidance for any contemplated transaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">These developments provide a clearer policy setting for investors and business owners. However, they do not determine the best timing of a sale, the treatment of investment losses or how a charitable contribution fits within a wider financial plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:13pt\">When One Tax Decision Changes Another<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">Tax-loss harvesting provides a useful example. Investors with unrealized losses in non-registered accounts may consider selling certain holdings to offset realized capital gains. Net capital losses can generally be carried back three years or forward indefinitely, subject to applicable <\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">rules.\u00b2<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">Selling a security at a loss and immediately repurchasing identical property may trigger the superficial-loss rule, potentially denying the immediate deduction. The rule can also apply when an affiliated person or entity acquires the identical property within the relevant period and continues to hold it 30 days after the sale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">Charitable giving introduces another interaction. Donating eligible appreciated publicly traded securities directly to a qualified <\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">donee<\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"> can result in a zero capital-gains inclusion rate for regular income-tax purposes and may generate a charitable donation tax <\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">credit.\u00b3<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">The Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) calculation treats the same transaction differently. Under the rules applicable in 2026, 30% of the accrued gain on donated publicly listed securities is included in adjusted taxable income; only 80% of the donation tax credit is recognized. The AMT calculation also includes 100% of other capital gains and permits only 50% of capital losses carried forward from prior years to be deducted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">These differences mean that realizing a significant gain, using carried-forward losses and making an in-kind charitable gift in the same year can produce an AMT liability even when each transaction appears tax-efficient under the regular calculation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">AMT doesn\u2019t necessarily represent a permanent additional cost. An amount paid can generally be carried forward for seven years and applied against future regular tax when regular tax exceeds AMT. Recovery depends on the investor\u2019s future taxable income. Scenario modelling should therefore consider both the current-year liability and the likelihood and timing of recovering any AMT paid.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">Another constraint is liquidity. Even if AMT can eventually be recovered, it may create an immediate cash requirement. The investor must determine whether the remaining portfolio can support anticipated tax payments and other financial commitments after the transactions are completed. If private-company shares are involved, eligibility for the Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption and the sequencing of legal or corporate steps could also affect timing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">Comparing a base case with alternative transaction sequences can reveal which approach supports the investor\u2019s objectives without introducing avoidable financial or tax consequences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:13pt\">A Coordinated Process <\/span><span style=\"font-size:13pt\">For<\/span><span style=\"font-size:13pt\"> <\/span><span style=\"font-size:13pt\">La<\/span><span style=\"font-size:13pt\"> Final Quarter<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">Having a coordinated and staged process keeps tax efficiency in its proper place.

Their roles remain distinct, but the analysis should use the same assumptions and transaction sequence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"display:inline-block;height:1em\"><span style=\"display:none\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0pt;padding-top:0;margin-bottom:0pt;padding-bottom:0;line-height:1.38;font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\">And remember, in-kind charitable donations, private company transactions, legal reorganizations and securities transfers can require documentation and processing well before December 31.
