Information on federal tax expenditures

The tax system can be used to achieve public policy objectives through the application of special measures such as low tax rates, exemptions, deductions, deferrals and credits. The Department of Finance Canada publishes cost estimates and projections for these measures annually in the Report on Federal Tax Expenditures. That report also provides detailed information on each tax expenditure, including descriptions, objectives, historical information and references to related federal spending programs. The tax measures presented in the Report on Federal Tax Expenditures are solely the responsibility of the Minister of Finance.
