So, you've established an investment income to complement your existing income sources—congratulations! But now you'd like to know how it's taxed. Sure, here's how:

- Interest: 100% inclusion (taxed the same as regular income).

- Capital gains: 50% inclusion rates (only half the capital gain is taxed—this is called the taxable capital gain). For example, if an individual has $1,000 in capital gains, only $500 is subject to taxation (at the individual’s MTR), and the other $500 is not.

- Dividends: Dividends from Canadian corporations enjoy preferential tax treatment via the dividend tax credit.

So, are you trying to compare permanent and term insurance? Read on.

🔹 Term insurance serves as a temporary shield against risks, covering you for a specified period, typically 5, 10, or 20 years.

🔹 However, it's crucial to note its limitations: It may not fully safeguard you beyond the policy term or if you're beyond the age limit for new policies, often set around 75 or 80.

🔹 On the contrary, permanent life insurance, akin to level-term, ensures stable premiums throughout your life.

🔹 Although initial premiums for permanent policies are higher, over time, term insurance becomes increasingly expensive, making permanent insurance a more prudent choice in the long haul.

Stay informed and fortified! 💼

For tax purposes, a person is considered to have sold all assets at fair value on the date of death for proceeds equal to the fair market value. This is known as a “deemed disposition” of assets and can result in a huge tax bill for the loved ones left behind. Typically, smart individuals purchase insurance products to meet the tax liabilities.
