Episode 9 – What is GAAR?
Is tax avoidance okay in Canada? Will I be penalized by the CRA for tax planning activities under the General Anti-Avoidance Rule (GAAR)? These are the questions Dave Sanderson and Ken Gordon will discuss in this episode.
Here’s a bit of background. The Westminster Principle gives Canadians the right to plan their affairs to minimize an individual’s tax liability. The Canadian judicial system supports that everyone is entitled to manage their tax affairs. However, the General Anti-avoidance Rule (GAAR), enacted in 1988, limits every Canadian’s tax planning activities. The GAAR could invalidate a tax transaction if it were determined that it was done with the primary intent of achieving tax benefits. The court uses a three-part test to decide whether or not to apply GAAR in a business transaction.
