U.S. & Canada Proposed Tax Changes

We’ve talked a lot already about proposed tax law changes in the U.S. later this year. From potential changes to the federal estate and gift tax exemption amounts to capital gains rates, there’s a lot that Congress is debating. Our friends to the North (up in Canada) are also looking at potential tax law changes as well. On this week’s episode of the Wealth & Law Podcast, Brent and Rachel chat with Paul Taylor to discuss the proposed tax changes in the U.S. and Canada and the potential impact those changes could have on cross-border planning.
