Trust Units held within an RRSP, RRIF, or DPSP
No amounts are required to be reported on the 2007 T1 Income Tax Return where Trust Units are held within an RRSP, RRIF or DPSP.
Trust Units held outside of an RRSP, RRIF or DPSP
Unitholders who hold their Trust Units outside of an RRSP, RRIF or DPSP through a broker or other intermediary and who have received cash distributions for the 2007 calendar year, will receive a "T3 Supplementary" slip directly from their broker or intermediary, not from the transfer agent of the Fund, Computershare Investor Services (the "Transfer Agent") or the Fund.
Registered Unitholders of Trust Units who have received cash distributions for the 2007 calendar year from the Transfer Agent (and not from a broker or intermediary), will receive a "T3 Supplementary" slip directly from the Transfer Agent.
Under Paragraph 12(1)(m) of the Income Tax Act, taxable amounts allocated to the Unitholders must be reported by the Unitholders in their 2007 Income Tax Return. Accordingly, the taxable amount of cash distributions received and receivable for the period from January 1, 2007 up to and including December 31, 2007 are included in your "T3 Supplementary" slip. The amount reported in Box (26) on the T3 slip should be reported on your T1 Income Tax Return as "Other Income".The deadline for mailing all T3 Supplementary Information slips as required by Canada Revenue Agency is March 31, 2008.
Adjusted Cost Base for Capital Gains
Holders of Trust Units are required to reduce the Adjusted Cost Base of their Trust Units by an amount equal to the cumulative cash received and receivable from cash distributions minus cumulative taxable amounts reported as "Other Income" on their slips (if any). If the amount of the reduction exceeds the Adjusted Cost Base, the excess should be reported as a capital gain and the Adjusted Cost Base will then be reset to zero.
The Adjusted Cost Base is used in calculating capital gains or losses on the disposition of the Trust Units if the Trust Units are held as a capital property by the owner.
