Do nonresidents of Canada have to pay taxes on gains from a canadian brokerage?
In general any income derived from a Canadian source will be subject to income tax in Canada even if the person receiving such income or gain is not a resident of Canada.The question is whether there is a need to file a tax return in Canada or not.The answer depends on the nature of the transaction yielding the gain.The below link to Canada Revenue website discusses this issue in details.
