The report suggests that the changes may result in high-income taxpayers paying more tax, but not significantly more, and that the burden will likely fall on owners of Canadian-controlled private corporations, including startups. The legislation to implement the capital-gains plans outlined in the 2024 budget has not yet been introduced by the Liberals, potentially due to opposition procedural maneuvers in the House of Commons.

The discrepancy in estimates is attributed to different assumptions about personal income tax revenues and the cyclical nature of capital gains realizations. The increased tax has faced criticism from business groups and economists, and weaker-than-expected revenue gains would raise questions about the benefits of the tax changes.
