Abstract
The session will outline the key issues from an income tax and indirect tax perspective that arise in an environment where research projects are conducted both in Canada and abroad. The session will examine the income tax ramifications to a charitable organization where the research is considered to be in support of commercialization as opposed to research with a public purpose benefit. The session will also explore the Canadian and US income tax reporting issues on payments made in respect of research projects. Finally, the GST/HST issues for payments made in relation to research activities for research projects conducted inside and outside Canada will be explored.
