Rental Property Expenses Canadians Forget to Claim (2026 Guide)

  Published: April 2026 | Reading time: 9 min | Category: Real Estate, Tax Savings, Personal Finance Owning a rental property in Canada comes with a surprisingly generous set of tax deductions — but most landlords only claim the obvious ones. Mortgage interest, property taxes, insurance. Done. What they miss is often worth thousands of dollars in additional deductions every single year. If you own a rental property in Ontario (or anywhere in Canada), this guide walks through every legitimate expense category the CRA allows — including the ones your accountant may not have mentioned.

Market Rebound: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq Futures Inch Higher Amid Tariff Relief Hopes

Investors are hopeful that President Donald Trump may soon scale back his new tariffs on Canada and Mexico. This optimism comes after Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick suggested that an existing Trump trade deal could provide a pathway to relief on some imports for these countries as early as Wednesday.

Futures for the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average both rose around 0.1%, while contracts on the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 advanced 0.3%. However, a soft print on labor-market hiring revived worries about a potential economic slowdown. Data from ADP showed that private-sector companies added just 77,000 jobs in February, significantly below economist expectations.

President Trump, in an address to Congress, acknowledged the current economic discomfort but reassured markets by stating, "There'll be a little disturbance, but we're OK with that. It won't be much". The S&P 500 hit its lowest level in four months on Tuesday, erasing all of its post-election gains, amid retaliation to Trump's implementation of 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico and doubling duties on China.

As the market awaits further developments, investors remain cautious but hopeful for a resolution that could stabilize the economic landscape.
