In an unusual twist of fate, that income tax bill we hate to pay could actually be the spark for a better future. Our government has made a firm statement – Canada will be a world leader in critical minerals, so we can be at the forefront of technology and the future green economy. In the last Federal Budget, April 2022, the government added a new layer to this policy with the Critical Mineral Exploration Tax Credit (CMETC). It cuts right to the core of our national security, whereby Canada and its allies can rely on themselves, rather than less friendly nations (such as China and Russia) for our critical minerals. The key factor here is having the tax to pay. In the summer of 1917, Canada was in the grips of the First World War. From British Columbia in the West to Nova Scotia in the East, to Nunavut in the North, and everything in between, Canada is blessed with an abundance of natural resources. In 1954, this innovation in tax policy gave Canadians a 100% tax deduction if they invest in treasury shares of junior mining companies during the exploration phase. Together, by combining these two tax policy deductions (flow throughs and donations) our clients, on average, can give up to three times more to their charities or foundation, at no additional cost due to the tax efficiency. The charity then sells the shares at the same discounted price, to the liquidity providers. For regular Canadians, this seemingly obscure shift in philanthropic policy probably did not mean much, but for WCPD Inc., it would be the catalyst for an entirely new industry. And while they are all very different, what connects them is the sense of wonder, excitement, and curiosity it creates in us.
