Tax Considerations:
Tax rules are complex and subject to change
Strategies and benefits depend on your specific circumstances, province, and business structure
Always consult with a qualified CPA before implementing any tax strategy
Provincial variations in rates and rules may apply (Québec vs. Ontario differences exist)
Past tax treatment does not guarantee future treatment
Investment Risk Disclosure:
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal
There is no guarantee that any investment strategy will achieve its objectives
Investment values fluctuate with market conditions, and you may receive less than you originally invested
Tax efficiency is one factor; risk, fees, and total returns all matter
Past performance does not guarantee future results
Insurance Illustrations:
Insurance illustrations show projected values based on assumptions that may not be guaranteed
Actual results will vary based on factors including interest rates, mortality experience, and expenses
Non-guaranteed elements (such as dividends or credited interest rates) are not promises of future performance
Review both guaranteed and non-guaranteed projections with your advisor before making decisions
