The Canada Revenue Agency will continue to administer the Liberals’ increased capital gains tax rate, despite the fact that it hasn’t passed in Parliament, which was prorogued by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week until March 24, 2025. The capital gains tax was part of the Liberals’ 2024 federal budget and requires Canadians making more than $250,000 in capital gains annually to pay taxes on two-thirds of that profit instead of half. “Although these proposed changes are subject to parliamentary approval, consistent with standard practice, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is administering the changes to the capital gains inclusion rate effective June 25, 2024, based on the proposals included in the Notice of Ways and Means Motion tabled September 23, 2024,” Finance Department spokesperson Benoit Mayrand told True North. https://tnc.news/2025/01/13/cra-going-ahead-with-capital-gains-tax-hike/

The rules are still being set for the race to replace Justin Trudeau, but one rumoured contender has taken his name out of the running. Dominic LeBlanc, named finance minister last month following Chrystia Freeland’s abrupt resignation, announced Wednesday morning that he will not be a candidate in the impending Liberal Party of Canada race. https://tnc.news/2025/01/08/finance-minister-leblanc-wont-seek-leadership/

The prime minister has largely disappeared from public view since Dec. 16, when Chrystia Freeland — his finance minister and once his most powerful ally in cabinet — resigned in devastating fashion, with a public letter that criticized him. Trudeau spent much of the holidays at a ski resort in western Canada and is not planning any official events or appearances by the end of the week, according to a person familiar with his schedule. He has given no public indication yet of when he’ll announce a decision about his future. Members of the Liberal caucus of Quebec, Trudeau’s home province, have asked the prime minister to step aside, according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., following a similar declaration by those in Ontario. Some Liberal members of the House of Commons have gone public, including Toronto lawmaker Rob Oliphant, who posted a letter asking Trudeau to make way for “a new leader elected through a robust, open leadership contest.” Liberal representatives from the Atlantic provinces said Donald Trump’s imminent return to power in Washington makes it more urgent that Trudeau makes a decision. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/2025/01/02/trudeau-leaves-canada-in-suspense-as-anxious-liberals-urge-him-to-go/

Since central banks became a ‘thing’ back in the early 20th century, we have seen a massive decline in the national finances of most countries around the world. Of course, predating this was the formation of the Bank of England and its role in the financing of the British empire, but of more significance to our current situation is the rise of America, the formation of the Federal Reserve, the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) and the World Bank Group (post Bretton Woods Conference) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/ever-decreasing-circles-why-worldwide-banking-ponzi-scheme-must-be-reset

A former chief adviser and close friend to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he doesn’t think Trudeau will stay on to lead the Liberals in the next election. Gerald Butts writes in a Substack newsletter today that Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland’s recent resignation from cabinet dealt Trudeau a staggering blow that loosened his already tenuous grip on the party. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/politics/2024/12/27/conservatives-call-for-no-confidence-vote-by-late-january/

Both Trudeau and former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney, who Trudeau has been courting to become Canada’s next finance minister, shared posts on X Thursday, a day after Trump’s latest jab at Canada in his Christmas Day message. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/politics/2024/12/27/leblanc-joly-to-meet-with-incoming-trump-administration-officials-in-florida/
