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.

Carney Sets the Course: PM Outlines Government Priorities in First Post-Election Address

 

Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to unveil his government's priorities in a highly anticipated news conference today, marking his first public address since securing a fourth mandate for the Liberal Party. 

Carney, who has remained largely behind closed doors since election night, is expected to focus on key domestic and international issues, including trade relations with the United States. His office confirmed that he spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump earlier this week, with discussions centered on easing ongoing trade tensions. While Trump has indicated a meeting in Washington could happen within days, Carney's team has yet to confirm the timeline. 

Beyond trade, Carney has spent the past few days engaging with global leaders, including King Charles, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and European Council President Antonio Costa. His diplomatic outreach signals a broader effort to reposition Canada on the world stage, particularly in light of shifting geopolitical dynamics. 

Domestically, Carney faces the challenge of governing with a minority government, as the Liberals secured 168 seats—one fewer than initially reported—following a validation process by Elections Canada. The Conservatives hold 144 seats, while the Bloc Québécois, NDP, and Green Party make up the remainder of the House. 

As Carney steps into the spotlight today, Canadians will be watching closely to see how he plans to navigate the political landscape and deliver on his campaign promises. His remarks are scheduled for 11 a.m. EDT, where he will take questions from the media.
