Be ALERT,  the world needs more "lerts"
Greetings ,
I found your Website  while browsing on the Internet for information in regards to FRENCH TAXATION regimes .
I am living in Ontario, north of Peterborough and the prospects of 1 m of snow on my driveway encourages me and my wife to look for alternate living quarters . We are originally both from Europe and have relatives living in France. So  it has become quite an atractive dream .
Could you recommend to me literature, books or articles, providing a reasonble introduction to the French taxation "punishment" .
thank you

There is no copy of the CANADA / FRANCE Income tax treaty available on the
Web that I know of:
However, you can get a pdf file from the Canadian Governemtn by logging in
to:
http://www.fin.gc.ca/scripts/Publication_Request/request_e.asp?doc=cda_fra_e.pdf&title=Canada-France%20Income%20Tax%20Convention
I have taken the liberty of ordering one for you and you may have it before
you read this.
As for other books or information on French taxation try:
