For capital gains realized on or after June 25, 2024, proposals originally released on June 10, 2024 with revised proposals released on August 12, 2024 and September 23, 2024, (collectively the “Capital Gains Proposals”), would generally increase the capital gains inclusion rate from one-half to two-thirds for corporations and trusts, and from one-half to two-thirds for individuals on the portion of capital gains realized, including capital gains realized indirectly through a trust or partnership, in a taxation year (or in each case the portion of the year beginning on June 25, 2024, in the case of the 2024 taxation year) that exceed $250,000. The Capital Gains Proposals also include transitional rules that effectively adjust the capital gains inclusion rate for taxation years beginning on or before June 24, 2024 and ending on or after June 25, 2024 to generally include only one-half of net capital gains realized (or deemed to be realized) on or before June 24, 2024. The Capital Gains Proposals further propose to adjust the value of capital losses realized in previous years so that two-thirds of capital losses realized prior to June 25, 2024 will be deductible against capital gains included in income at the two-thirds inclusion rate such that a capital loss will offset an equivalent capital gain regardless of the inclusion rate (additional adjustments would be required where the capital gains have been subjected to an effective inclusion rate of one-half rather than the basic inclusion rate of two-thirds). Revised alternative minimum tax rules were enacted on June 20, 2024, which may increase a shareholder’s liability for such tax.
