In today’s rapidly evolving financial landscape, understanding the legal and tax implications of cryptocurrencies in Canada is crucial for both individuals and businesses.
Our society is increasingly digital and cryptocurrencies continue to gain support in government, business and personal financial transactions. But what are the laws and regulations that govern their use? While the Canada Revenue Agency does not consider cryptocurrency tokens legal tender, but rather a commodity governed under personal property security law, are they even the holder’s personal property at all?
This CPD Course will delve into the complexities of this emerging asset class. We’ll explore what constitutes crypto assets, including their classification and the underlying technology of blockchain. Participants will gain insights into the current state of the crypto market, the future outlook, and recent global developments that could impact Canadian regulations and adoption. Moreover, we will address the tax considerations associated with common crypto use cases, such as sales, exchanges, and employee remuneration.
