OECD Developments and Implications for Canadian Tax Law – Scott Wilkie
The reliability of familiar tests of jurisdiction to tax international income is being re-examined in light of contemporary business practices. This presentation will consider how the OECD’s recent reports concerning “intangibles”, “hybrid mismatch”, “after-tax hedging”  and “base erosion and profit shifting” foreshadow evolving perceptions about the nature and measurement of international income and how it should be taxed, in the context of recent and continuing changes to Canadian tax law.
