On July 1, 2010, Ontario’s Retail Sales Tax (“RST”) will be replaced by a single, value-added sales tax and combined with the federal Goods and Services Tax (“GST”), resulting in the Harmonized Sales Tax (“HST”). The HST will be applied at a combined tax rate of 13 percent, made up of an 8 percent “provincial component” and a 5 percent “federal component.” This article discusses these points in detail.

This session covered the basics on the benefits and risks of such financing, as well as the process and possible pitfalls in successfully bringing a bond deal to closure, and being a key player in the bond process.

This session presented an overview of the tax law and regulations as they relate to the deductibility of fines, penalties, and punitive damages. There was also a discussion of the current trends in settlement language with governmental institutions and strategies to obtain the optimal tax outcome for the company.
