Section 41 — Income Tax Act: Taxable net gain from disposition of listed personal property

For the purposes of this Part, a taxpayer’s taxable net gain for a taxation year from dispositions of listed personal property is 1/2 of the amount determined under subsection 41(2) to be the taxpayer’s net gain for the year from dispositions of such property. A taxpayer’s net gain for a taxation year from dispositions of listed personal property is an amount determined as follows: determine the amount, if any, by which the total of the taxpayer’s gains for the year from the disposition of listed personal property, other than property described in subparagraph 39(1)(a)(i.1), exceeds the total of the taxpayer’s losses for the year from dispositions of listed personal property, and deduct from the amount determined under paragraph 41(2)(a) such portion as the taxpayer may claim of the taxpayer’s listed-personal-property losses for the 7 taxation years immediately preceding and the 3 taxation years immediately following the taxation year, except that for the purposes of this paragraph an amount in respect of a listed-personal-property loss is deductible for a taxation year only to the extent that it exceeds the total of amounts deducted under this paragraph in respect of that loss for preceding taxation years, no amount is deductible in respect of the listed-personal-property loss of any year until the deductible listed-personal-property losses for previous years have been deducted, and no amount is deductible in respect of listed-personal-property losses from the amount determined under paragraph 41(2)(a) for a taxation year except to the extent of the amount so determined for the year, and the remainder determined under paragraph 41(2)(b) is the taxpayer’s net gain for the year from dispositions of listed personal property. In this section, listed-personal-property loss of a taxpayer for a taxation year means the amount, if any, by which the total of the taxpayer’s losses for the year from dispositions of listed personal property exceeds the total of the taxpayer’s gains for the year from dispositions of listed personal property, other than property described in subparagraph 39(1)(a)(i.1).
