In today's episode Jason and Kim are going to talk on a topic that has been in the news recently the Bill C-208. It is a private member's bill that amends the Income Tax Act (Canada) (ITA) in an attempt to alleviate the financial disadvantage that typically arises for taxpayers who sell their business, family farm or fishing corporation to their children or grandchildren, as compared to selling to an arm's length third party. This disadvantage is caused by certain tax rules, specifically an anti-avoidance rule in section 84.1 of the ITA. Despite Bill C-208's best efforts to "fix" this problem, the language used in the legislation does not appear to work as intended. It raises many concerns that will likely need to be addressed by the government through further amendments to the legislation. Kim is here to talk about what the heck this thing is and how it affects business owners in general.
