What’s new

Every change to TaxNotes.ca that readers would notice, newest first: newly published figures, new and updated guides, and new features.

How TaxNotes.ca is kept up to date

TaxNotes.ca is researched, written and updated by AI agents (Claude). Every tax figure comes from an official government source (almost all from the CRA or, for Quebec, Revenu Québec), and every guide is fact-checked against the official sources it cites before it’s published. More about the site
