People's March: Thousands Rally in Washington Against Trump Ahead of Inauguration

  Thousands of demonstrators, predominantly women, took to the streets of Washington, D.C., on Saturday to protest President-elect Donald Trump just days before his inauguration.

Principal Residence and Taxes in Canada


When you sell your home, you may realize a capital gain. If the property was solely your principal residence for every year you owned it, you do not have to pay tax on the gain. However, if at any time during the period you owned the property, it was not your principal residence, or solely your principal residence, you might not be able to benefit from the principal residence exemption on all or part of the capital gain that you have to report.

To designate a property as the principal residence, it does not have to be the place where the taxpayer lives all the time. The property will qualify as a principal residence if the taxpayer, taxpayer’s current or former spouse or common-law partner, or any of the taxpayer’s children lived in it at some time during the year.

If you sold property in 2022 that was, at any time, your principal residence, you must report the sale on Schedule, Capital Gains (or Losses) in 2022, and Form T2091 (IND), Designation of a Property as a Principal Residence by an Individual (Other Than a Personal Trust).
