Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre announced Thursday that a government led by him would allow Canadians to contribute $5,000 more a year to their tax-free savings account (TFSA) — as long as that extra cash is being invested in Canadian companies.
Poilievre is pitching it as a way to keep more investment dollars at home because the extra contribution limit will be earmarked for Canadian investments alone.
One of my tfsa is in investments using wealthsimple.
They do report tax info so I guess that’s one way.
Or, you would send the new tax forms with your proof of investment.
Still, it’e an all around stupid idea that nobody really needs.
