Dr. Kevin Mailo introduces Cherry Chan, a renowned author and expert in real estate taxation, who discusses the implications of the 2024 federal budget alongside Dr. Wing Lim. They delve into how the budget targets the wealthy but inadvertently affects the middle class, particularly through the increase in capital gains inclusion rates. Their discussion explores how the changes penalize not just the ultra-rich but also ordinary Canadians who have invested in properties or stocks for long-term financial security.

Cherry Chan and Dr. Wing Lim dissect the budget's effects on both unincorporated individuals and incorporated professionals. They explain how the changes disproportionately affect those who have incorporated their businesses to benefit from lower tax rates, as now, even the first dollar of capital gain within a corporation is subject to the elevated inclusion rate. This shift undermines the previous tax advantages of incorporation, significantly impacting investment strategies and financial planning for professionals like themselves. Cherry’s insights help unpack the changes being instituted and how to approach them.
